The Free Software Foundation Europe is starting a new competition:

What about getting the chance to receive one of our cash awards and to travel to Brussels to meet the other winners and great people from the Free Software movement? Then join the YH4F competition! The only conditions for you to join are that you are 14-18 years old and you live in Europe. Start by registering before Sunday, 31 October 2021.

There’ll be an online event on Sunday, 10 October at 17:00 CET – see the Youth Hacking 4 Freedom page for more info, and details on registering.

And there’s more: Thorsten Behrens from The Document Foundation’s Board of Directors is on the jury. So, if you fill the requirements listed above and want to get hacking on a project, join in!
