"Freedom": The 8th Cartoon Contest, Caminos de la Libertad 2023, Mexico
8th Cartoon Contest, Caminos de la Libertad 2023, Mexico
The Caricature is an act of provocation, of criticism; capable of defending freedom through 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 its value in their lives aware of it.
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 caricature. Since its inception, it has been a tool for criticizing and analyzing the reality of our world. In the search to promote debate around freedom, Grupo Salinas announces the caricature contest.
Guidelines:
• People from anywhere in the world can participate in this contest.
• The works must be completely original and unpublished, and if they contain words, they must be in Spanish. They should not be participating simultaneously in any other contest. Adaptations of other originals will not be accepted.
• "Freedom" should be the theme of the cartoon. The winning works will be those that best capture, analyze, contrast, promote and disseminate it, those that offer proposals to
expand the options of freedom in Mexican society or to present examples of success and failure in the application of this right. • Each participant may submit as many works as they wish.

1st Edition of the International Cartoon Contest "Safety at work", Italy
FARAONE – INTERNATIONAL CARTOON CONTEST “SAFETY AT WORK”
REGULATIONS
ART. 1 – SUBJECT
"Faraone industrie Spa" of Tortoreto (TE) is organising the 1st Edition of the International Cartoon Contest "Safety at work", International Review of humorous graphic art. The aim of the initiative is to contribute to the dissemination of the culture of safety at work through the art of humour and illustration.
A picture is worth a thousand words and we believe that art in all its forms invites reflection and moves the minds of workers and all people.
ART. 2 - CONTEST THEME
"Safety at Work" - the topic must be understood in a general sense and in every aspect, from every point of view and possible interpretation: Safety at Work means working with peace of mind and serenity with suitable equipment in safe places, whether outdoors on construction sites or in offices; it also means ensuring worker safety, the workers of today and tomorrow. Every year 2.2 million workers around the world lose their lives due to occupational accidents or diseases. Ensuring worker safety is a global need and a priority in every country in the world.
This is why we wanted to extend the participation of this initiative to an international level, relying on the sensitivity and creativity of each cartoonist.
The work should invite people to reflect on the importance of work safety. We often think that 'it won't happen to us because nothing has ever happened before', but we are not superheroes and an unforeseen event may result in not being able to return to our loved ones after work.
ART. 3 - HOW TO PARTICIPATE
The contest is open to all artists, cartoonists, illustrators and graphic designers worldwide who are of age.

The 23rd World Press Freedom Canada International Editorial Cartoon Competition 2023
23rd World Press Freedom Canada International Editorial Cartoon Competition 2023
The theme for the 23rd International Editorial Cartoon Competition is:
Free speech or free for all
Intimidation and disinformation have become weapons in the arsenal of politicians and those who seek to control the media narrative.
Donald Trump’s rude behaviour and open disdain for rivals, the media and government institutions has encouraged others, such as Jair Bolsonaro, to emulate him.
On average, Trump lied twenty times per day on Twitter and Facebook, bypassing mainstream media organizations that are responsible for checking facts.
Social media companies profit by creating algorithms that divide us and reward fear and anger, rather than accurate information.
Has mainstream media been derelict in its mission as it struggles to remain profitable? How can we filter abuse without curtailing free speech? And if that is at all possible, who would moderate the moderators?
Competition rules
Three prizes will be awarded:
First prize worth $1500 plus a Certificate from the Canadian Commission for UNESCO
Second prize worth $750
Third prize worth $500
All sums are in Canadian dollars. Ten additional cartoons will receive an Award of Excellence, which are not remunerated.
Only one cartoon may be submitted by each participant, either in colour or black and white, but must not have won an award previously.
World Press Freedom Canada reserves the right to use the winning cartoons for promotion of the Cartoon Competition.
The winners of the Cartoon Competition will be announced on World Press Freedom Day on Thursday May 3, 2023 and will be advised by e-mail.
The winner’s names and their cartoons will be posted on our website.
