It's global.

Pollution. Clean water. Refugee health. Preparing for disasters. Nutrition. Infectious disease. Access to health care. Climate change.

What do you have to say?

Create a 30-second (or less) Public Service Announcement (PSA) about a health condition that is important to you. A PSA is a non-commercial advertisement typically on radio or television, that is deemed "helpful" to the public.

Make your statement. If that's not motivation enough, how about a $500 first-place prize?

Anyone can be a filmmaker.

Use a camcorder, camera phone, digital camera, super 8 camera, etc. in your production tools to create a PSA.
