Let it be said by their children's children that when they were tested they refused to let this journey end, that they did not turn back nor did they falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, they carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.
Barack Obama, 2009. 

The voice of hope in 2009 comes from America. While they all wait to see whether Barack Obama can turn his fine rhetoric into actions, Good 50x70 aims to follow his example by addressing seven critical issues threatening the earth and all its inhabitants and inviting the global creative community to produce posters on the briefs from our seven charities.  

As of today, the 1st of February, their briefs on Child Labour, Climate Change, Healthcare Deprivation, HIV/AIDS, Nuclear Emergency, War on Terror and Women's Rights Deprivation are now online. 

They're honoured to be working again with Amref, Amnesty, Emergency, Greenpeace, Lila, Unicef and WWF, whose briefs you can see here. Exactly as before, all you have to do is choose one (or more) brief that inspire you, create a poster, upload it and it'll be entered into the Good 50x70 database. All the posters will be provided to our endorsing charities for their potential use, and the the best 30 responses to each brief, as selected by our jury, will be exhibited around the world and published in a catalogue. 

This year they welcome Ruth Klotzel, Santiago Pol and Svetlana Fadina to our jury.
They'd like to thank them, all our jury members and endorsing charities for the time and effort they give to Good 50x70. It wouldn't happen without you. Here's to a successful Good 50x70. They might not change any of the critical issues we're tackling in this year's edition, but together they can start.
