THE CHALLENGE:

The topic for this year’s challenge is SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT. In its simplest context, Sustainable Development is growth that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of new generations to meet the needs of the future.

It is commonly understood as a process of learning how to make decisions that consider the long-term future of the economy, ecology and equity of all communities.  As US President Dwight D. Eisenhower said in 1959, “The world must learn to work together-or finally it will not work at all”.

The student challenge is to creatively communicate how Sustainable Development enables nature, life support and communities to be sustained with the ongoing development of people, economy and society.

Application forms and submission procedures are available onwww.iaaglobal.org/Education.  Or click here to download the Case Brief.

EDAWARDS 2012 Europe’s best publicized Design Awards – Deadline 29 February!

By Anubis 2 Comments
Categories: Advertising Awards, creative, Creativity, Graphic Design and Logo Design

 

The European Design Awards is the comprehensive annual awards organization celebrating the best of graphic design, illustration and digital design in Europe. A joint effort by 15 communication design magazines from across the continent, the ED-Awards is a brilliant way to publicise your work on an international level.

On deciding to enter any design competition you should ask yourself two very important questions:

How certain can you be on the quality of the results?
The ED-Awards boast the most qualified jury around, composed of representatives from the leading European design magazines. They are specialised design editors and critics, whose daily work is precisely to recognise and promote the best of communication design internationally. Further more, an observer appointed by the International Council of Graphic Design Associations, the world body for professional communication design, is always present in order to ensure that all rules are followed to the letter.

What will you get out of it?
The ED-Awards receive the widest publicity in the design awards field. Agencies and designers who excel here, receive the best coverage available. The reason is simple: the ED-Awards are based on a network of design media, i.e. the means of communication themselves.

How to enter

Deadline 29 February!

Note that this year, all samples should be sent to:

ANUBIS was a very old god of the ancient Egyptians, universally worshipped throughout the land and became considered the gatekeeper and ruler of the underworld; the “Guardian of the veil“ he was “Lord of the Cleansing Room” and the opener of the roads of the North. “He observed the weighing of the deceased’s heart against the feather of Maat [Truth] and reported his findings to the jury of the gods.
