Welcome to the Walk in my Shoes Challenge, a unique contest that encourages secondary school boys to express their dreams and aspirations through the art of rap, music, poetry, or art. The challenge is all about using shoes as a canvas to tell your authentic story.

We believe that everyone has a story to tell, and we want you to tell yours using your shoes as the focal point of your art. You can either produce an artwork (painting of a shoe) or use an actual shoe (like graffiti on a shoe) to tell your story of what it means to be a boy in the 21st century and how boys are overcoming their challenges to become champions.

Alternatively, you can produce a 60-second song, rap or spoken word piece that features the line “walk in my shoes” in the lyrics. The focus should be on the challenges boys face in growing up and how they can overcome them.

The challenge will be driven exclusively through social media channels. All participants will be required to post their entry on social media with the hashtag #WalkInMyShoes. The posts with the highest likes win the competition.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your shoes and start creating. We can’t wait to see the unique stories and perspectives you bring to the table. Good luck!
