Our Planet is in peril. Global Climate is changing for worse, largely due to our actions and lifestyle. We must do what we can to reverse the current trend in environmental degradation. African Culture and lifestyle is rich with systems for preserving the environment. Traditionally, Africans live in balance with the environment. We need to remind ourselves of these systems and adopt the ones that are practical and will contribute to reversing Global Climate Change. Thus iCandy Productions in conjunction with GE-Factor Star Search joins committed institutions, organizations and individuals around the world in their effort to enhance public awareness of the need to protect and preserve the delicate balance that sustains our natural environment.

Our contribution to this effort is in the form of a Literary, Music Composition and Dance Competition.

The Programme

The competition is divided into four categories:

1. Short Play
2. Poetry
3. Music Composition
4. Dance – Group

The best of the entries will be used to create a musical play entitled “The Earth My Daughter” – The Story of a planet in peril and what we must do to save it. Using culturally rich imagery and motifs, the Story will be told from an African Perspective. The objective is to entertain and educate its audience on environmental concepts.
