Are you feeling creative? Fed up of the round mark the condom can leave in your wallet? Well why not design a limited edition condom tin to carry them in and win dollars why you are at it?
As part of the Australian Government’s ongoing National STI Prevention Program: Sexual Health Campaign, the competition aimed at young people to design limited edition condom tins is now open.
They want to raise awareness about the risks of infection and encourage safe sexual behavior, including using condoms and seeing a doctor about testing after unprotected sex. To encourage condom carrying, they are asking young people to design a condom tin that will appeal to your peer group.
The competition is open for a period of four weeks and entry is via the campaign website www.australia.gov.au/sti. You can use the design tool provided at the site to create and upload a design or use your own design software. You don’t have to design one to be involved, you can participate by voting for your favorite tin design. Once at the site you can view all of the submitted entries and vote.
Two winning entries will be chosen by a panel of judges including visual and performance artist Ben Frost, Australian rock band Bluejuice and expert on dating, sex and relationships, Samantha Brett. The judges will choose one winner from all of the entries and a second winner from the top ten designs as voted on by the public.
The winners will each receive $1000 and have their design produced on condom tins. Think what you could do with that?
So why not have a go…..
