Both forms, together with the contest rules, are available on the municipal website https://benidorm.org/es/evento/concurso-diseno-portada-del-plan-joven-be...

The amount of the second prize for the minor under eighteen years will be delivered in school material, didactic or similar.
The jury could declare the award and second prize void if it did not observe the necessary quality in them. It will be made up of three representatives of youth associations, plastic arts and design, together with the Councilor for Youth of Benidorm City Council, Jaime Jesús Pérez.

Benidorm Youth Plan is, the councilor stressed, “the first municipal plan for young people to be developed in Benidorm, the Benidorm we want, and it contains proposals to be developed, from all councils and on a multi-annual basis, focused on the youth of Our city". The plan also includes, Pérez pointed out, "all the initiatives and concerns of groups, entities and youth associations in Benidorm".
Despite the fact that the effects of the pandemic have altered the schedule for preparing the plan, the priority is, recalled the Youth Councilor, "to be able to materialize all the consultation in aspects of participation of groups, include the proposed actions and schedule their implementation.
The plan, advanced Jaime Jesús Pérez, “contains a study of the reality of Benidorm that the youth want it and that we want for the youth, as well as the development and evaluation of all the proposals, actions and activities that are developed from the councils for them".
