CALL FOR APPLICATIONS: Organised by the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom, the Animate Europe 2015 Comics Competition, animation compeition is now open for entry for the 2015 edition, theme “Europe Fast Forward”.

In the beginning, there was war. Then a project was set up to bring peace and prosperity to Europe. Today, it has grown to be an ever closer union of 28 very diverse member states.

Will the European Union stick together and master its challenges as one? What role will it play in the world? How will we live? Which scientific innovations will shape our everyday life?
