Time to vote for wind - until 18 June!
The public voting portal has opened for industry stakeholders and the general public to choose their favourite windship poster designs. The youth poster design contest "Wind Ship – the Future" is an initiative launched by the International Windship Association (IWSA) in partnership with Nantes Saint Nazaire Développement and Association Wind Ship.
Around 100 entries have been received from young artists worldwide aged between two and seventeen years old. Twelve winners will be chosen by a select jury of maritime and environmental leaders, through a public vote, and by voting conducted by IWSA members. Winners will be announced on Friday, 23 June 2023, ahead of critical meetings to set the future of shipping at the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) in London.
IWSA secretary general Gavin Allwright: "We have been delighted to receive so many imaginative, colourful and inspirational posters – we think that even before the vote all of these are winners in their own right!" (ah)
