8th International Cartoon Contest “caminos de la libertad”, Mexico Deadline: June 30, 2023

Theme: Freedom

8th Caricature Contest SALINAS GROUP Summons the eighth Caminos de la Libertad Cartoon Contest
The caricature is an act of provocation, of criticism; capable of defending freedom from humor. Caminos de la Libertad invites reflection and discussion on the different aspects of freedom, generating thought around it and making those who have not yet realized the value it has in their lives aware. Freedom is the fundamental right of the human being, but the efforts to limit it have become systematic in the contemporary world.
 There is no more direct and effective form of communication than caricature. Since its inception it has been a tool for criticism and analysis of the reality of our world. In the search to promote the debate around freedom, Grupo Salinas announces the caricature contest.
