The "FOOD SOVEREIGNTY" section concerns comics linked to food diversity and food safety concept, to the sustainable agriculture and its potential both from an environmental and a social point of view, as well as investigations on the most important environmental thematic such as energy preservation, the problem of water resources and natural resources shortage. The section “INTERNET AND SOCIAL NETWORKS IN AFRICA” is linked to the development of the new communication technology and to its dissemination in the contemporary society, especially related to the fundamental role of the social networks and the links between them and the youth participation (we can take into consideration the protest movements during the “Arab spring” and the dissemination of information inside and outside the countries). The "FREE SUBJECT" section allows authors to freely choose the subject. 3. Comics must be original, unpublished, in B/W and/or in colour; maximum format is 30 x 42cm. The technique is free.
