Design the Future You Choose:
UN Global Compact Network UK SDG T-Shirt Competition

Design the Future you Choose - Dark Blue (2) sm

Organised in partnership with Developing the Young Workforce (DYW) and ACS Clothing Ltd, the competition invited students to design T-shirts inspired by the SDGs, encouraging critical research, interpretation, and the creative communication of global challenges through visual design.

The awards ceremony was held on 30 May 2025, where a panel selected Alna from Compass School as the Best Overall Design winner from nearly 200 submissions! The winning design is now available for purchase on the UN Global Compact Network UK's Teemill store. All proceeds from the store support our ongoing work as a charity to advance responsible business practices and accelerate progress toward the SDGs.

Next Steps: The winners of each category are invited to a reception hosted by MSP Stephanie Callaghan at Scottish Parliament on 20 November, where they will have the opportunity to engage directly with Government Ministers, MSPs, and local organisations.
