F ind out what goes into making your favourite magazine — The Hindu Young World special.

Yes, you can be a Guest Editor for a day! Imagine the excitement as your name and photo appears in the paper telling the world that you were a part of the team.

The first time we hosted Guest Editors was in 2014. We asked them how it would be if they were editors for a day. The four winners in 2014 were — Malaika Abha Shankar , Milan Joby , Adishree Srinivasan and Adit Achary . They were invited to The Hindu’s Young World office in Chennai and spent an entire day working on the Children’s Day special issue.

In 2015, we asked how our readers would celebrate 25 years of Young World . The six Guest Editors who made it to The Hindu Young World office in Chennai on November 4 were Hanah Saafiya, Pragun Pudukoli, David Theophine, Deepti Balakrishnan, M.L.A. Asrit and Pooja Rakesh .

Here’s your chance to design a page for The Hindu Young World . If you are in Stds V, VI or VII and have a flair for writing and design, send in your entries.

How to apply:

There will be only six guest editors. They will get to work on Young World on November 1 — the Children’s Day special issue.
