More than 75 children took part in the LITÄRA competition for young readers of German poetry under 11 years of age. The participants had to record a video in which they recite a poem by a German-speaking poet in German and send it to us by December 1, 2020. Our jury chose 7 winners: Tanya Grigorieva - Grand Prix, Polina Yaremko - 1st place, Kira Pikhno and Grigory Ternavsky - 2nd place, Vladislav Ivashchenko, Arina Bondar and Emma Shulmeister, Glib Serdiychuk - 3rd place. We also awarded two participants (Darya Gerasimenko and Yuliana Kuznetsova) with special prizes. All participants received gifts and certificates from the Austrian Cultural Forum Kyiv.
