Greetings, We are excited to announce This Month’s Essay Competition, a recurring event held each month with a new contest theme. For February, we have selected the “Harvard International Review (HIR) Academic Writing Contest” as this month’s contest/journal. Harvard International Review (HIR) The Harvard International Review has been addressing urgent global issues since 1979. Its Academic Writing Contest invites high school students to explore underreported international topics, requiring them to bring critical, globally-minded perspectives rather than simply repeating facts. Students can write 800–1,200-word articles on topics like Agriculture, Business, Cybersecurity, Education, Employment, Immigration, Economics, Public Health, Technology—and more. The contest challenges students to research and think independently, developing skills in both writing and analysis. Eligibility: This contest is open to high school students in grades 9 through 12 Program Registration deadline (J&B): February 19th, 2025 Essay Submission Deadlines: May, August 2025 Consulting timeline: 10 sessions to take place between June and August Harvard International Review Website:https://hir.harvard.edu/contest/ Digital Brochure:https://simplebooklet.com/2024hir YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ggFuI8pbeo&t=2s If you decide to participate in one of This Month’s Essay Competitions, we are pleased to offer several benefits, including a discounted rate for existing clients and the chance to take part in a 1-project package for new clients.
