The 10th competition - exhibition "Students, All to Chaumont" of the Chaumont Poster Festival is organized in partnership with the CRIPS (Regional Center for AIDS Information and Prevention), supported by the MILDT (Interministerial Mission for the fight against Drugs and Drug Addiction). Its purpose is to allow graphic design students to speak out, in order to further a social awareness of the use of psycho-stimulating substances. This action aims to give rise to exchanges and debates about drug addiction, its effects, its pleasures and its harm for the individual and the society, to rally those working in the visual and communication field, and to involve the actors of prevention in the issue of information on drugs. In the context of this partnership, apart from the prize awarded by the jury of the Chaumont Poster Festival, a second jury, organized by the CRIPS and the MILDT, made up of professionals from the health, prevention, communication fields, as well as graphic designers and youngsters, will select 10 projects in order to design 10 posters for a national prevention campaign. The jury's decisions will be without appeal. The award winners, together with professional graphic designers will finalize their images during a 3-day workshop to be held in June or at the beginning of July. The award winners agree to allowing their images to be used for the purpose of the national campaign of the MILDT and the CRIPS and to using the images for any sort of medium. The organizers reserve the right to cancel the competition in case of absolute necessity.
The poster competition-exhibition is aimed at graphic design students from art schools, universities, technical and vocational schools, may they be public or private, enrolled for the current year. This competition will give rise to an exhibition of all the posters entered and an award in the context of the 14th Chaumont Poster Festival, on Saturday, 24 May 2003.
