Campbell High School student Tyler Keegan won a trip to France to study human rights this summer for his essay on how to fight poverty. As part of the "France-Atlanta Humanitarian" contest, French students across the metro area were tasked with writing an essay in French on how to raise awareness among young people on humanitarian issues and fight poverty. Tyler suggested using micro-credits to fight poverty and the Internet  to promote awareness.  Institut Francais and the Foreign Affairs Ministry will sponsor his trip to France. More than 1,200 students participated in the contest.
