Aset Sabdulaeva, Deputy Chairman of the Chechen youth organization “Noxchiycho” has announced that they have opened a global competition for talented Chechen youth.

If you know how to dance, sing or play any kind of musical instrument, or if you have any other artistic talent like painting, sculpting or film-making, then you have the opportunity to take part in this global competition.

According to the announcement, if you want to participate in the competition, you must record your performance on video or audio file and post it as a YouTube link or a file sharing site to the competition’s contact address: ucyn2009@gmail.com

The candidates will be reviewed in July 2014 and finalists will be invited to participate in the European campaign “For De-occupation of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria” which will take in place in 15 different European countries. Accommodations, tickets and meals for finalists will be paid by the organizational committee and at the end of the campaign, a gala concert will be held in Belgium or another European country, which will be chosen by the majority of participants.

The organization’s deputy chairwoman Aset Sabdulaeva also pointed out that when you submit your performance file, you automatically accept the use of your material in the European campaign. For this reason, be sure that you want to participate.
