The call for entries to “Free Patrick Zaki, prisoner of conscience”, a special edition of Poster For Tomorrow, will be open from 8 to 28 January. The competition is organised by Amnesty International Italia, Conversazioni sul futuro, Diffondiamo idee di valore in collaboration with Alma Mater Studiorum - University of Bologna, Articolo 21 Association, Human Rights Festival
and with the support of numerous public administrations and other
partners. The aim of the contest is to join the women and men across the
globe who are calling for the immediate release of the Egyptian student Patrick Zaki,
who has been detained in prison as a prisoner of conscience for about a
year, due to his work for human rights and for his political opinions
expressed on social media. The ten best posters, selected by our jury
team, will be printed and posted between 7 and 8 February (the
anniversary of his detainment and confirmation of his arrest), in the
cities, public and private spaces that will join the initiative. All the
details will be explained on Monday 4 January at 18:50 with a live stream on Facebook and YouTube during a special episode of the web show “Sette meno dieci”.
