About The Awards
The Greenpeace Design Awards were established in Australia in November 2008, in recognition of the role visual communication has played in Greenpeace's non-violent direct action. The awards "acknowledge the achievements of the most innovative and creative individuals whose work best reflects environmental concerns in a visually striking and iconic way". The theme of the competition was "Be a part of the action".
Entrants to the awards had the opportunity for their work to be considered for use in major Greenpeace Australia Pacific campaigns in a variety of media including campaign posters, t-shirts, banners, flyers or other media.
The judging panel for the awards was made up of creative professionals working in the fields of graphic design, illustration, photography and visual communication. Greenpeace representatives were also represented on the judging panel.
