Posters for Tomorrow 2012: Gender Equality Now!
The City of Paris organized, in partnership with UNESCO and Les Arts Décoratifs, a free exhibition of 100 posters from 30 different cities in the world.
The 100 posters presented at the exhibition were selected from 3020 samples, sent from 105 countries in annual competition “Posters for Tomorrow”.
The exhibition was held from the 6th to the 9th of December 2012 at the Museum of Arts Décoratifs in the 1st Arrondissement of Paris.
You can see the 10 best posters here.
“Posters for Tomorrow” is the main project of the association 4 Tomorrow. It is an international poster competition on topics related to human rights and fundamental freedoms.
The 100 best posters selected by an international jury are simultaneously exposed in different cities of the world around the 10th of December each year, to celebrate the International Day of Human Rights.
Michelle Bachelet, former President of the Republic of Chile and Executive Director of UN Women is ambassador of the 2012 edition of the competition, said: “They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. But we do not need a thousand words to spread the message of Gender Equality now! Equality between women and men is not only a women’s issue. It is a right for everyone… The campaign poster for tomorrow catches what is imagined and allows taking a step further to making this reality.”
On the opening of the exhibition, a catalogue with the 100 best posters of the 2012 edition was launched.
