This poster was created in the 1990s for the Oxfam Canada campaign educationow which was aimed at  informing the public about adversities faced by children, and particularly girls, globally in their pursuit of education while also battling poverty. The design uses white and lime text on a black background with a header of black and white photos of young, diverse children in schools and the tagline reads “When will we learn?”. The poster features a website and a help-line to connect viewers with resources.
