World Challenge 09 is a competition organised by BBC World News Limited (“BBC World News”) aimed at finding projects or small businesses from around the world that have shown enterprise and innovation at a grass roots level (the “Competition”). We want to hear from our viewers and readers about the social entrepreneurs who are making a difference without costing the earth. It could be you or someone you know.
Each grant will be awarded to one person nominated by the relevant project/small business to represent the project/small business and accept the grant on its behalf (the ‘Representatives’?), and BBC World News, Newsweek and the Jury accept no obligation to any other people linked to the project/small business.
The winner of the World Challenge 2009 will receive a grant of $20,000.
