The competition aims to encourage reading and writing in Spanish and calls on participants to develop their imagination and creativity in the world of art and words, thus increasing their interest in Spanish culture.
It is open to both Vietnamese citizens as well as foreign citizens who are legally residing in Vietnam whose mother tongue is not Spanish. Entrants must hold the copyright for the entries they submit.
The entrants can submit entries in one of four categories including short stories, poetry, micro-story and rap, with suggested topics of feminism, joy of life, exploration of limits, love, art of writing, environmental crisis, and love for Spain.
Entries should be sent by email to emb.hanoi.sc@maec.es no later than October 12.
A two-volume book introducing the winning entries of the 2021 contest was introduced at the event on the occasion.
