In March, AMU launched its first edition of the "Writing and Creation Prize" on the theme of "Beautiful Tomorrows".
This prize was created to encourage creation in the student world in order to highlight its concerns, expectations and vision of tomorrow, whether around societal issues or more intimate questions. This prize also helps to strengthen the feeling of belonging to our community, despite the isolation and distancing of the moment, and defends the idea of a living literature, open to the world.
Two competitions stand out: one for AMU students, in partnership with the literary festival Oh les beaux jours! and the other for AMU staff.

The time has come to unveil the winners....
