The forty-day marathon of the “river” of cartoons from around the world, whose “last station” was the International Cartoon Festival – Ferizaj 2023 – Ninth Edition, ended.
They reached a total of 1276 cartoons (291 in the Railway theme or 22.8% of the total number and 985 cartoons in the free theme or 77.2% of the total number of cartoons).
300 cartoonists from 59 countries of the world competed, of them 46 women or 15.3% of the total number and 254 men or 84.7% of the total number of participants.
15 participants or 5.0% of the total number of competitors were under the age of 18 and based on the rules of the competition will not be included in the competition.
I thank the participants in this competition and highly appreciate their willingness and contribution to Sh.K. HiTHI Kosova Cartoon, about the city of Ferizaj, Kosovo and cartoons in general!
