Call for Entries: 11th Cartoon Contest
Deadline: April 30, 2026
Cartoons are an act of provocation, of critique; capable of defending freedom through humor. Caminos de la Libertad (Paths of Freedom) invites reflection and discussion on the various aspects of freedom, generating thought around it and raising awareness among those who have not yet realized its value in their lives.
Freedom is the fundamental right of human beings, but efforts to limit it have become systematic in the contemporary world.
There is no more direct and effective form of communication than cartoons. Since their inception, they have been a tool for critiquing and analyzing the reality of our world.
In an effort to foster debate around freedom, Grupo Salinas is holding this cartoon contest.
