APEC 2026 will be held in Shenzhen. In celebration of this global event, the 5th "Just Shenzhen, Just Young" Video Contest, themed "Snap Shenzhen, Engage with APEC," is now officially underway. To help aspiring creators explore the city's unique character and spark creative inspiration, the contest will also feature a special supporting event—"Shenzhen International Ambassador" City Exploration & Creation Camp and Foreigner Experience. Registration is now open!
This series will take creators into all 10 Shenzhen districts to visit companies, industrial parks, ecological sites and more. It's an immersive chance to experience the city's energy and translate its diverse resources into video ideas and stories—using your camera to tell Shenzhen's tale.
Guided by Foreign Affairs Office of Shenzhen Municipal People's Government and jointly organized by Shenzhen Foundation for International Exchange and Cooperation (SFIEC) and the District Foreign Affairs Bureau, the first stop of the camp is Futian District.
Adopting the concept of "field trip as creation", we will focus on three core elements: scientific & technological innovation, creative culture and environment & ecology, and launch a creative journey of shooting while exploring. Every creator will be able to accurately capture the highlights of Futian and gather abundant creative materials!
