Amateur and professional journalists interested in international development can enter a competition.

The Guardian International Development Journalism Competition, sponsored by Barclays and GlaxoSmithKline, aims to highlight crucial issues facing the developing world that are underrepresented by the media.

Applicants should write a feature story on an aspect of global poverty. Accepted themes include empowering women, aids orphans and emergency preparedness. For a full list of topics, click here.

Forty entrants will have their articles published at guardian.co.uk. Sixteen finalists - eight amateur and eight professional writers - will be flown to a developing country to research a new assignment and have their pieces published by The Guardian.
