Call for Interest
Through the call for interest, 50 posters will be selected and presented over two poster sessions. The call for interest will be open to all Parties and non-Party stakeholders. The selection process will aim to accommodate broad representation of ACE implementation by Parties, UN organizations, international, non-governmental, civil society and children and youth organizations.
How to submit
Use the following form. Also, download the licensing agreement here and attach the signed agreement to the form. Only a separate link to the poster should be contained in the form, thus limiting the size of the submitted input. The full-sized poster can be shared via Dropbox, OneDrive, WeTransfer, etc.
Submission deadline
1 May 2024, 23:59 (CEST).
Submission format
A1, 594 X 841 mm, with either vertical or horizontal orientation. The posters should be made in English and the presenters should be able to communicate with participants in English. Multilingual versions of the poster can be disseminated via a link/QR code.
The selected presenters are fully responsible for preparing and bringing printed posters to the session. Specific drop-off times and locations will be notified to the selected presenters prior to the session. Pinboards will be provided by the secretariat.
How will the posters suggestions be evaluated
Due to space limitations, not all applications will be selected. The secretariat will conduct an evaluation based on the below-listed evaluation criteria:
- Adheres to the formats – i.e. size of poster, language (last year’s posters are available here);
- Is directly related to one or more ACE elements – climate education and public awareness, training, public participation and access to information, and international cooperation in these areas, and/or children and youth engagement in climate action;
- The contents of the posters showcase the relevant work on the ground at all levels. The posters and the in-person interaction should foster engagement and collaboration that goes beyond the poster session;
- Joint application by two or more organizations (e.g., a joint poster by a Party and a UN organization, or by a civil society organizations and a youth organization) are highly encouraged;
- Gets the messages across to a broad audience;
- Reflects gender-responsiveness and intergenerational equity;
- Should not be politically defamatory.
