PEACE POSTER:
The 2024-2025 Theme is 'Peace Without Limits'
General Information
What is it? The Peace Poster Contest was created in 1988 to give young people the opportunity to creatively express their feelings for world peace and to share their visions with the world. Approximately 350,000 children from more than 65 countries participate in the contest annually.
What are the rules? The competition is open to young people who will be 11, 12 or 13 years old on November 15, either in schools or youth groups such as Guides. Within our own District there is also a trophy for the best entry from a Special School. The theme changes each year e.g. & quote; A Celebration of Peace”.
How do we get involved? A Peace Poster Pack is required for each school or group involved. They are available in Spring and can be collected at Convention or ordered directly from District. The cost is £14.00+P&P per pack. An important fact to remember is that the rules are very particular about the size of paper used.
Why should you enter? The competition provides us with the chance to interact with young people in our communities, introducing the youth to international understanding, as well as giving our Clubs a vehicle for obtaining positive publicity.
How does it work? For each contest a Club sponsors, one winner is chosen to advance to the District Final in November. The winner advances to the Multiple District competition where one poster is chosen to send to the International level of the competition.
The International grand prize winner receives a trip to a special award ceremony at Lions Day with the United Nations, along with an engraved plaque and a cash prize of US$5000.
