The ECO Prize is a youth competition for children and young people aged 8 to 21. In order to keep fairness among the participants as high as possible, no persons over the age of 21 may be part of the team. However, your teachers, parents and supervisors can advise and support you, of course. If you are being closely supervised by an adult, such as a teacher, this can be indicated on the project description form. Nevertheless, the implementation of the project should mainly be in the hands of the young people.
There is no restriction.
To send large files such as your video, you can use the WeTransfer service and send the link to your video by email. WeTransfer is free for files up to 2 GB.
We will be happy to help you!
