Last year, in October, Donald Trump spoke in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and released a plan for his first 100 days in office.

This plan outlined three main areas of focus:

1. Cleaning up Washington, including imposing term limits on Congress

2. Protecting American workers

3. Restoring rule of law

Like it or not, US President Donald Trump‘s decision  affected not only America, but also the world. Allow us to highlight the impact of his presidency in a cartoon. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a cartoon is at least worth a million.

Society for News Design and the Danish newspaper Politiken are currently inviting cartoonists from all over the globe to submit entries that can answer the following question: “How did Donald Trump manage his first 100 days as president?”

How does it work?

Once you submit the artwork, your news organization will gain access the entire catalog of cartoon entries in this project. All contributing cartoonists and news organizations must accept this shared copyright.

How can I participate?

Simple. You may choose to produce a special cartoon for the project or select one which has already been published. Submit as many entries as you wish. All cartoons must be e-mailed to Søren Nyeland , with your full name on the subject line. Please submit your entries before Friday, April 21st, 2017 .

How does the sharing process work?

Politiken will organize the cartoons in Dropbox and then distribute them via WeTransfer. Both print and digital cartoons will be published on Saturday, April 29th and then throughout the following days.

Important!

By submitting the cartoon for the project, authors and publications agree that the copyright will be shared with all participants in the project.

All publications and cartoonists worldwide are invited to participate in all platform. Apart from sharing the cartoons with all publications/participants, the cartoons will also be showcased at snd.org.
