MTV "Redraw the Line" Challenge




http://www.athinline.org/challenge
Cell phones and social networks help us stay connected in ways we never could before, but they've also given birth to digital drama that can quickly spiral out of control. MTV, with support from Blue Shield of California Foundation, is looking for new ways to dial down this drama, and if you have a great idea, you could win $10,000!

As part of MTV's A THIN LINE campaign, we're on the hunt for innovative digital solutions that help young people identify, prevent and stop the spread of digital abuse. Digital abuse is an emerging issue that touches a majority of teens today and includes things like forced sexting, cyber-bullying and textual harassment. You can learn more about each of these issues in the "Get the Facts" section of this site.

You can enter the "Redraw the Line Challenge" by yourself, or as a team of up to five members, and if we pick your idea you'll take home $10,000. You may also have a chance to work with MTV– and a development budget of up to $75,000 – to make your idea a reality. The winning idea will be incorporated into this campaign.
