To commemorate the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty (October 17) and the First Decade for the Eradication of Poverty (1997-2006), the United Nations invites children from around the world to participate in an art competition to design a Unites Nations stamp on the theme “We can end poverty”. Children between 5-15 years are eligible. The deadline to send in designs is 30 June 2007. For more information about the competition and its rules, see UN Children's Art Competition.
