PAST POSTERS
Our past posters clearly show howthe use of hands, ligthning bolt, African continent can combine to create an evocative expression of our annual themes.
2019 has several central ideas.ownership, our creative economy and value chain, protecting our territory.
Hands form the central part of the message. This year we want to see you incorporate any of the below throught starters. Use it, dont use it, but bring the concept of #OWNOURFORCE to life:
HANDS WORKING TOGERTHER as a metaphor for our collective efforts, THE CONCEPT OF FIRE as a metaphor for our creative energy, THE CONCEPT OF MAP as a metaphor for our territory and African identity, THE CONCEPT OF FORCE as a metaphor for our creative energy field.
