Fill Hearts with Hope and Dreams:
Social Entrepreneurs like you CAN and DO make a difference
Do you ever worry that your contributions to solving our world’s escalating problems are just a drop in
the ocean? Feeling defeated, we sometimes leave the ‘big’ solutions to big organizations to tackle.
But have you ever noticed how the plans of international players fail time and again in the Middle East and
surrounding countries? It’s time we all took a crack at it!
Young social entrepreneurs worldwide just launched 320Reality, an online peace project to gather the
best ideas for bringing new hope to the region. 320Reality is a contest that will bring people together in a
forum where they can propose inspiring, sustainable and practical solutions.
How it will work: Social entrepreneurs from around the world are invited to submit three-minute videos
of their best ideas for sustainable development and bridging communication barriers in the Middle East.
The online community will vote on these ideas and choose the most compelling. Winners of the first round
will be invited to submit follow-up videos to further flesh out their proposals. The online community and
a panel of judges will collaboratively choose six finalists who will be invited to attend PeaceMidan's first
international conference in Long Beach, California, in September 2013. The six finalists will pitch their
ideas at the conference in 20-minute presentations. Three winners will receive financial and professional
support to turn their ideas into reality.
Sign up for the 320Reality competition today. Submissions will start on November, 12th, 2012.
