General Rules and Regulations
1- Main Subject: "EDUCATION and GENDER EQUALITY"
Quality Education and Gender Equality are the UN best to improve the world.
With these themes, corresponding to the 4th and 5th SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals), PortoCartoon calls once again the artists to two fundamental concerns for the future of humanity.
Education continues to be a factor in the expression inequalities, with around 260 millipon children unable to attend scholl, especially in the southern hemisphere, especially in coutries in central Asia and sub-SaharanAfrica. This is a drama with great implications for the future of these countries. The UN goal is to access inclusive, quality and equitable education and to prometeli felong learning opportunities for all by 2030. In terms of Gender Equality, the situation is more serious: 2.8 billion women and girls live in countries that do little to eliminate the discrimination they face.
This will be one of the most lagging global goals, relative to the international commitment (signet by world leaders in 2015) to 'social development' by 2030.
Education and Gender Equality converge in dramas and need answers on a global scale.
Humor can be a good contribution. And so the challenge is given to the sharpenened pencils artits.
