At the start of the year we decided to skip our traditional poster contest and have a whole year dedicated to exhibitions showcasing the best of the 39,000 posters we received over the last decade. These exhibitions have already started (see below).
Significantly, this plan of action allowed us to properly analyse what we have done previously and what we want to do in the future. So far there is one thing that we can tell you for certain: from now on poster for tomorrow will be a biennale.
Leaving a year between editions will win us valuable time that will transform all our operations: there’ll be more time for better management, more effective preparation, more efficient planning and more detailed, clearer briefs, all of which will lead to an increase in the quality of the poster competition and better organised exhibitions. The extra time will also give us more time to manage and set up more workshops and establish more partnerships both in and outside the design community.
Right now we are fine-tuning our ideas, making hard decisions and finalizing plans. The good news is that our 2020 program will be announced before the end of the year (fingers crossed).
We hope that you’re excited about this as we are!
Speak to you soon,
The poster for tomorrow team.

Good luck – and get busy!

2018 marks the 10th and final edition of poster of tomorrow in its current form.
Since 2009 we have reached – and surpassed - many of our initial goals. We have established a large community of designers who are now actively involved in social design. We have hosted debates and workshops in schools and universities all around the world and received tens of thousands of posters for our competitions.
But perhaps the greatest sign of how far not poster for tomorrow, but the human rights movement, has come in the last ten years is the popularity of December 10th, International Human Rights Day. When we chose this day to launch our annual exhibitions on this day, it was to mark an important day that we felt was given too little attention by the international community. Now it celebrated by more and more people every year as an important date on the calendar, a status we are happy to have contributed to in a little way.

However, with all the success enjoyed by poster for tomorrow, we have noticed that most attention goes towards the annual poster contest, rather than the human rights issues at the heart of our movement. We are, of course, happy and proud that thousands of people are proud to be associated with a human rights graphic design contest, but we want to put the focus on human rights again, not the contest. Furthermore, the world is changing and we want to be part of that change.

Therefore 2018 is the final edition of poster of tomorrow in its current form.

We are currently working on how we can evolve and emerge in 2019 with different tools to draw more attention to human rights that are ever more at risk. Events around the world show that debate and dialogue are vital if we are to live in a world in which we are all truly equal. Our goal for 2019 and beyond is to drive this dialogue wherever and however we can.

But first, 2018. To celebrate the last nine years and look towards to the future, we have chosen to make this year’s theme one that affects all our futures: the environment. To quote President Macron, we want to make our planet great again.

Therefore the theme for 2018 is ‘A Planet for Tomorrow’. The brief will be released together with the Call for Entries on February 20. As you might have noticed, that’s a change from our regular schedule, as is the date of the live jury, and the date of the premiere exhibition, which now falls on Sunday 16 September - International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer.

No less significantly, we have reduced the amount of entries per person from 9 to 3. This underlines our commitment to the issues at the heart of the contest, rather than chasing a higher number of entries for the contest.
