The Contest is open to all cartoonists from all over the world and beyond.

2. THEME: THE COST OF FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION.

To speak, to give an opinion, to demonstrate publicly, to express yourself through the most essential forms of social

communication are rights than more and more are being treated as merely political-economic interests. A sick intolerance

to freedom of speech grows with impunity in many parts of the world. Journalists, political dissidents, human rights

activists, mothers and relatives of the "disappeared", intellectuals, cartoonists, are brutally repressed; many have their life

threatened or are pushed into exile. And there are those who die because they believe in free speech. To express

criticism or to oppose an authoritarian government or large scale organized crime that use murder as a common practice

of censure means constantly dicing with death.

This year we invite you to share your ideas with us, to express freely your thoughts about freedom of speech, the controls

placed on it and the world-wide violation of this basic human right.
