Nickelodeon's 26 channels across the United States, Europe, Asia, Australia, and Latin America broadcast a series of 30-second original animation shorts highlighting how the MDGs affect the lives of kids worldwide and what they can do to have a voice in their future. One strategy involved the use of awards as an incentive to increase participation, learning, and creative reflections/expressions on the part of children. The theme of the Nick 2015 "Hear My Voice" contest was Aspirations: "Do something that represents your life today and then something that you want in your life in 2015." Selected artwork from each country was to be displayed at the foyer of the United Nations Building in New York.
