17 imperatives for a sustainable world seen by press cartoonists<\/span><\/h2>\n

How can we not be sensitive to the issue of development, which determines the quality of life and, all too often, the survival of hundreds of millions of people (one billion live below the poverty line)? How can we not opt for sustainable development that will best preserve the planet we leave to our descendants?<\/p>\n

This is a consensual subject, since all countries and all schools of thought are seeking to overcome shortages and improve people’s well-being in the long term.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s also a subject of controversy between different approaches to development, and sometimes discouragement when, like Sisyphus, we have to go on eternally repeating a work that is always precarious, with fragile progress, so often called into question.<\/p>\n

Choosing impertinence to tackle serious and complex subjects may be the most appropriate way of sharing them with as many people as possible. Cartoonists, who have been described as a kind of “foot soldiers of democracy”, are adept at being critical without sinking into denigration.<\/p>\n

Cartooning for Peace’s press cartoonists are delighted to be illustrating the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. But they will not let their guard down, and will remain ironically critical of the inertia and hypocrisy that could distort the good intentions they have expressed.<\/p>\n
