The International Competition "Uno, nessuno e centomila" is a cultural event that takes place every year in Agrigento, the birthplace of Luigi Pirandello, celebrated Italian playwright and Nobel Prize for Literature.

The Premio Campiello announces the 27th edition of the Campiello Junior Prize, a literary award reserved for young people aged between 15 and 22.

The competition
The works will be evaluated in successive stages by various juries, selected by the Management Committee of the Campiello Prize. In the second half of April 2022 the names of the five finalists will be announced and their works will be collected in a book edited by the Campiello Foundation.
The finalists will receive a selection of books and an invitation to the Campiello Prize award ceremony. The winner will be entitled to a two-week study holiday in a European country.

Special recognitions
Two special mentions will be awarded:
- to a story that deals with issues related to environmental and/or social sustainability

This year, there will be also a special mention for young entrepreneurs, aimed at rewarding the best story that, through the protagonists or the setting, describes and narrates the business culture, in particular that of young people or women.

The BookTuberPrize was established in 2019 to offer an award to young readers who are both active consumers of books and content producers on YouTube and other social media. The award is intended to be an opportunity to circulate the knowledge of books among young people, developing their ability to understand, synthesise, think critically and stimulate their digital skills, through the use of information technology.
 
The competition is open to young people aged 15 to 25, residing in Italy or abroad, divided into 2 age groups – 15/19 years and 20/25 years. The participants, after having chosen and read a book or a poem collection, will have to describe the content through a video review of maximum 2 minutes in mp4 format.
 
Recordings to be submitted by 21 May 2021.
