The Eighth Annual International Green Crescent Cartoon Contest Is Now Accepting Submissions!
The 8th International Green Crescent Cartoon Contest is being organized with the theme "Addictions are unnatural disasters." The deadline for submissions is set for February 9, 2024. Speaking about the contest, Green Crescent General Manager M. Nurullah Atalan emphasized the priority of contributing to the upbringing of generations free from addictions. Atalan stated, "We welcome the cartoons of all cartoonists who aim to raise awareness in line with our priority of fostering healthy and addiction-free generations."
Green Crescent, through the 8th international cartoon contest, metaphorically highlights addictions as unnatural disasters, drawing attention to the harms they cause to individuals, families and society. Open to both amateur and professional cartoonists, the contest's theme is "Addictions are unnatural disasters," and applications can be submitted through cartooncontest.yesilay.org.tr.
Green Crescent General Manager M. Nurullah Atalan, noting that the International Green Crescent Cartoon Contest is increasingly welcomed in Türkiye and worldwide each year, emphasized the metaphor that addictions pose an immense potential threat, being unnatural disasters. He also expressed the significance of raising awareness and drawing humorous cartoons with impactful and touching messages that convey the potential destruction of individuals, families, and society if preventive measures are not taken. Furthermore, Atalan highlighted the priority of contributing to the upbringing of generations free from addictions, both globally and in our homeland. He eagerly awaits submissions from both youth and amateur and professional adults for the contest.
