Results of the annual contest of the International Association VATIKAM «Best works of 2018»

Dear friends!

In this year we have seen an overall reduction in the number of votes. In our opinion, the difference of 1-2 votes between the portfolios is so small that it would be unfair to take it into account in the distribution of prize places. For this reason it was decided to apply additional criteria (activity on the website, site traffic, level and originality of the competitive works) in the evaluation of the contestants' portfolios.

By the results of the contest, we decided to award the following authors with honorary diplomas «Laureate of the International contest «Best works - 2018»:
