Created in 1988, the Peace Poster Contest gives young people throughout the world a chance to think about world peace and creatively express what it means to them.
Between 1988 and 2008 more than 5 million children have been challenged to draw, paint or sketch their interpretation of world peace. A different theme is selected each year and young people ceate a poster that reflects peace as they see it.
The contest is open to children aged 11, 12 or 13 years of age on 15th November 2008 eligable birth dates are November 16th 1994 through to Novenber 15th 1997.
" Peace Begins With Me " is the theme of the 2008 / 2009 contest.
Lions Clubs can sponsor the program in their community in schools, youth groups
etc. The contest is a wonderful opportunity for clubs to work with youth in
there community to stress the importance of peace, tolerance and international
understanding. The contest encourages young people ages 11-13 to think about
peace, creativley express what it means to them and share their visions with
the world.
