Our pencils and brushes are weapons of equality, transforming women's struggles into humor that pokes at conscience and provokes reflection. From everyday challenges to major battles for rights, graphic humor captures the essence of the female experience with a unique blend of irony, sarcasm and tenderness.
Through our drawings, we honor women as protagonists of their own stories, challenging social norms and dismantling prejudices with a smile on their faces. May each stroke be an ode to the courage, resilience and diversity that make women an inexhaustible source of inspiration and humor.

BASES
I - Only subject: “Technology and education”.
Technological advances have impacted learning and teaching. An example: what we experienced with virtual classes due to the last pandemic. For many, this technological progress has a positive impact on aspects such as autonomy and motivation or technological understanding in itself. Another example would be those known as flipped classrooms, where general explanations or readings are done outside of class, using audiovisual tools on electronic devices. But there are opinions against, such as the misuse of cell phones during school hours, which distracts the student from the pedagogical objectives and, in addition, there are those who point to a passive use of the content, highlighting the loss of the practice of critical thinking and creativity in the classroom, and a greater digital divide due to the price of electronic devices.
With this contest, the organizers want to know the real perception of professionals and new graphic artists, but always through the prism of humor, of course.

Everyone has the right to protest. It is an indispensable tool in the fight against injustice and protests are the driving force for change worldwide. People work together to bring about that change, but the commitment of each individual demonstrator also counts.
And you can protest in different ways: by taking to the streets together, taking action online or, for example, by making cartoons. Every protest can inspire and make you dream of a better future. But the right to protest is currently under attack.
