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."
