PRESENTATION OF THE COMPETITION:

The “First International Cartoon Competition on the Freedom of Expression in Memory of Anna Politkovskaya” is a joint initiative between the Associaciól’Oliva and the LlibreriaPapasseit de Manresa bookshop, with the support of PEN Català and InstitutoQuevedo del Humor (IQh), and the support of the magazines RevistaLaMarea and La Directa.

The Associaciól’Oliva is a charitable organization which works developing educational, awareness investigation and cultural projects across four large areas: peace, human rights, democracy and sustainable human development.

All six organizations have come together to run this competition, in memory of Anna Politkovskaya, on the tenth anniversary of her murder. With this competition we want to pay homage to those people who have defended freedom of expression and the freedom of the press in spite of attempts to silence them and make them invisible. The competition aims to be a tribute to journalists, writers, illustrators, bloggers, painters and other artists who have suffered persecution, too much, to the point of giving everything for unacceptable and unforgettable acts of flagrant injustice which continue to take place.

The defence of civil and political rights, and work so that their guarantee is a reality, necessitates and requires initiatives which bring these matters closer to citizens: raising questions; promoting reflection; generating debate and discussion; exercising rights.

RULES OF PARTICIPATION:

The 2016 Cartoon Competition is now open.  This year's theme is Unity within Diversity. Cartoonists are encouraged to explore ways in which community is enriched by the ways we accept and celebrate difference. 

Once again, there is a secondary school section with a prize of $300 and an open section with a prize of $500.  All entries must be accompanied by the entry form which includes full details of the competition.

Entries close on Friday 26 August. For further information contact the Centre Manager at: peaceandconflict@otago.ac.nz
