The Competition calls youth, aged 18 to 28, from all over the world, to picture their vision for gender equality in fields ranging from sharing of unpaid care and domestic work to fighting for an end to sexual harassment and all forms of violence against women and girls.

The awarded cartoons will be exhibited as well as featured on the online platform of Cartooning for Peace and the prizes will be:

First Prize: EUR 1200

Second Prize: EUR 750
