FOREWORD

The International Competition of Illustration and Social Graphics, Societies on the Move, aims to stimulate the imagination with a cosmopolitan and multi-ethnic outlook for society. Until a few decades ago the Guarani people, - led by an elder tribesman who had a vision - traveled long distances, travelling together with their old people and their young children too, in order to find "land without evil", a favorable place to settle when the original place where they had lived no longer met their required conditions. Today, movement of people poses growing challenges to modern society, as the use of common resources and rights are challenged by new sharing needs. At the same time an active and informed citizenship is required, involving respect for the environment; choices on consumption; production dynamics as well as for institutional processes. Creation of any future societies could too start from such vision.
