For the second year in a row, MTV and OneWorld are organizing a global competition in the run up to World AIDS Day, 1 December 2004.

The competition is for young people to submit audio or video public service announcements (PSAs) that convey the messages of MTV's award winning HIV/AIDS awareness campaign, Staying Alive (www.staying-alive.org).

MTV and OneWorld share a commitment to the global fight against HIV/AIDS and this unique collaboration aims to reach an audience at a global and local level. This year, entrants can unleash their creativity by developing clips on the theme of women, girls and HIV/AIDS. Winning clips in two categories (one audio and one video) will be streamed on the Staying Alive site, made available to all 26 local MTV web sites and will be featured on the OneWorld Radio and TV websites. The winners will also receive the Staying Alive 2004 Award, an honour given to an individual each year who makes an important contribution for HIV/AIDS awareness.
