  The question:

  Your thoughts.

  How can microfinance provide society with the basic necessities of life?

  And what role can the legal profession play in the evolution of microfinance?
  
  Submit your ideas in no more than 500 words. To help formulate your response,see the examples of the role played by Clifford Chance in helping communities the world over to break the poverty cycle by creating access to finance. You will be judged on your creativity, initiative and business acumen, not your level of legal knowledge.
   

  The top 10 from stage 1 will be invited to present their entries to a panel of judges at our offices in London. The most compelling presentation will win the ultimate prize, with second and third place winners also receiving places on our vacation scheme.
   
  Finalists will be notified by 4th February 2011.
