World Parkinson Congress 2013 Video Competition

The 3rd World Parkinson Congress (WPC), Montreal October 2013, is holding a video competion. 

They had a similar competition leading up to the 2nd WPC in 2010 which was an outstanding success. You can still watch the two winning videos here and most of the videos submitted are still on display on YouTube.

The WPC 2013 invites you to make a video about your experience with Parkinson's and to share your journey with the larger community on the Road to a Cure. The WPC works to advance science, promote community, and inspire hope and sees video as a way to achieve these aims. The individual paths each of us takes can come together at the WPC to build and/or reveal a greater understanding of Parkinson’s.

In this light, they invite and encourage members of the Parkinson’s community, including people with Parkinson’s, scientists, caregivers, rehab specialists, health activists, clinicians, doctors, family members, pharmaceutical representatives, foundation staff, and others to share your story or stories about Parkinson's with the WPC community.

Submissions are open from 5 November 2012 to 8 May 2013. 

More details, including the rules and prizes on offer, are available on the WPC website.
