About the ANFACHEN AWARD

In 2016, the Anfachen Award started with the topic ‘Women’, in the second year it was dedicated to the topic ‘Tolerance’, in the third year to ‘Housing’, in the fourth year to ‘Water’, in the fifth year to ‘Democracy’, in the sixth year to ‘Nature’ and ‘Humanity’, and in the seventh year to ‘Energy’. With hundreds of international submissions, renowned juries and a unique presentation, first in Hamburg and then in other German and international cities, the poster competition not only inspires the participants, but above all the public. The broad media response has also helped the award from the outset to draw increased attention to controversial socio-political issues.

THE RIGHTS ISSUES

c) The designer indemnifies Anfachen Award against all claims by third parties that they may raise against Anfachen Award in connection with the transfer of rights or their utilisation
