Evaluation is carried out by experts in development education, art and media until mid-June. Afterwards the finalists will be announced on the portal. All of them and their teacher will be invited to the prize-giving event that will take place in mid November in Strasbourg. There they will have the unique opportunity to meet important stakeholders for development that will come together at the European Development Days. At the prize-giving ceremony winners and runners-up will be announced. The winners and their teachers will be invited to accompany the European Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian Aid in an African developing country at the beginning of 2009. As the EU is one of the key actors in supporting development cooperation with countries across the world, the main aim for winners travelling to Africa will be to see EU development assistance in action. They will visit sites featuring development cooperation projects working in the education sector, including relevant initiatives from the EU Member States as well as the Commission. The total number of contributions this year amounted to 1,128; they can be checked online on the DYP gallery at: http://dyp2007.eun.org
