The Power of Youth

7th International Poster Contest

Contest Brief

Graphic Stories invited all the creative people to take part in the international poster contest titled  “The Power of Youth”. The international contest was part of the 9th Conference on Graphic Design and Visual Communication, Graphic Stories, that took place in March 2023.

Young people are the most important and dynamic part of the population in every country. They are the driving force behind every change, social, economic and cultural. Young people have the curiosity, the idealism, the enthusiasm, the courage, the strength and the will to change the world. They are not just a part of the general population but the most important wealth of this world. They are the present and the future of humanity, and the hope for building a better future with more justice, more peace, more freedom, more flora, more sustainability and more inclusivity.

The participants were invited to visualize their thoughts, ideas and reflections regarding the theme of the contest which was  “The Power of Youth”.
