The contest is conducted by the Permanent Mission of the Philippines to the UN in Geneva, in conjunction with the Philippines’ presidency of the 13th Meeting of the State Parties to the CCM and in cooperation with the CCM Implementation Support Unit and the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs under its Youth4Disarmament Initiative.
