The Cartoon Movement has joined forces with the EuropeanCultural Foundation (ECF) to explore perspectives on the 2014European elections through comics and cartoons. Until 25 May2014, we are inviting comic artists and cartoonists to reflect onEuropean citizenship and the various issues that are currentlyfacing Europe. We are not just interested in the EU, but would liketo hear perspectives from countries that are part of Europeancitizens’ daily lives across the continent and beyond.
In the run up to the European elections, we have been askingcartoonists to challenge prevailing notions of democracy andrepresentation, to reflect on alternatives, and to offer freshperspectives on more inclusive societies across Europe andbeyond. In short, we ask: what is the future of Europe? Will it be afortress designed to keep other people out, or no more than a freetrade zone? Will Europe evolve into something more, a politicalentity with a true European citizenry?
