We are thrilled to announce the launch of the 2026/27 Never Such Innocence International Competition: “Through My Eyes”
Share your own unique perspective of war and conflict. Consider what has shaped this — your experiences, nationality, heritage, gender, proximity, age, education and more. Join our conversation, send your voice across borders and inspire others around the world.
This year we invite you to use Poetry, Art & Short Films to express yourself.
We are always moved by the creativity, honesty, and courage that our young people bring to their work. This is your platform to explore and express how conflict – past or present – affects yourself and the world around you.
