World Forum for Democracy

From Cartooning for Peace.

Cartooning for Peace is taking part in the World Forum for Democracy, organised by the Council of Europe in Strasbourg from 6 to 8 November 2023.

An opportunity for Cartooning for Peace to launch its report on the situation of threatened cartoonists around the world at the Forum Talk organised during the event: 

"Press cartoonist: an endangered profession" with Kak (France), Terry Anderson (UK), Sanity Panels (India), Jean-Paul Marthoz and Tanja Gonggrijp.

The Forum Talk will be broadcast live on the World Forum for Democracy's website.

As it does every year, Cartooning for Peace is taking part – in partnership with the Council of Europe and the City of Strasbourg – in the World Forum for Democracy, organised by the Council of Europe in Strasbourg from 6 to 8 November 2023.

The theme of this 11th edition is “Democracy = Peace?”. 

With the return of war to the European continent, the European and international communities immediately expressed concern about the future of democracy and the need for a return to peace. 

At a time when democracy is under attack, the World Forum for Democracy, a unique platform for decision-makers and activists to debate solutions to the challenges ahead, is wondering how democracy can best guarantee peace.
