What would Shero do if she witnessed violence? Or experienced it? What does she need in order to tackle violence against women?
This cartoon is the result of a WAVE Call for female artists – cartoonists (which ran from September to November 2018).
The task was to imagine and present a vision and interpretation of an inspirational role model, the character of a Shero – a female hero, a role model who is an agent of positive change in society.
Istanbul Convention
The story of the cartoon needed to be related to the issue of domestic, psychological and/or sexual violence as it is defined in the Istanbul Convention.
