Chance to Win 800 Euro at the 9th Cartoon Contest 'De Geus' 2021

The cultural association ‘De Geus’ (based in Lebbeke, Belgium) is organizing the 9th Cartoon Contest 'De Geus' 2021 under the theme "Colonization and Decolonization". Although the people of the former colonies forced their independence in the second half of the 20th century, old colonial ideas and power relations still-often unconsciously – have an influence on our society and our thinking. They contribute to contemporary racism and stereotypical prejudices.

The jury will award five awards:

• 1st award: 800 Euro
• 2nd award: 400 Euro
• 3rd award: 250 Euro
• 4th award: 200 Euro
• 5th award: 150 Euro

An exhibition of the selected works will take place in the gallery ‘De Fontein’ in Lebbeke on 16, 17, 23, and 24 October.
