Australian Young Writer's Award 2021

Theme: Mental Health - Post-pandemic recovery challenges and resilience

Entries are open nationally and we welcome all contributions from young Australians under the age of 18.

You can write a play, a poem, or story… the style is up to you. However, your creative piece should be about what you feel, think of, or have experienced when it comes to mental health. If you want to write about a mental health problem or mental illness, then you may do so, however, we do also encourage you to take the opportunity provided to promote positive mental health and wellbeing.

Submissions due: 31 July 2021, by 11:59pm (AEST)
