Poster Design Competition on Global Citizenship

Poster Design Competition on Global Citizenship now is over!

Poster Design Competition on Global Citizenship: Ban Ki-moon Centre for Global Citizens, a Quasi-International Organization based in Vienna, Austria, recently has announced Poster Design Competition on Global Citizenship, new call for entries that invites all artists around the world to participate.

➜ Short description

What does Global Citizenship Mean to You? The concept and images of the poster should represent the idea of global citizenship and being a global citizen. It can provide an answer to the following questions:

- How can a global citizen be portrayed?
- What does her or his environment look like?
- Which tools are being used in a global citizen’s daily life?
- What values, ideas, fears, and stories do global citizens carry?
- How can global citizenship contribute to the local community and transform society?

Artists, designers, activists, students, and change-makers are invited to design a poster about “Global Citizenship” and contribute to the awareness raising of the concept.

Organiser believes that promoting global citizenship is crucial to foster a new generation of leaders who cultivate empathy, sustainability, and human rights.

Organiser invite you to use your creativity as a communication tool and inspire others to take action.

"During the pandemic, we observed a rise in nationalism, xenophobia, global inequalities, and much more. Therefore, we believe that promoting global citizenship is crucial to foster a new generation of leaders who cultivate empathy, sustainability, and human rights. Your poster should express thoughts and ideas about global citizenship."
