I. Target: The goal of this contest is twofold: on the one hand, to promote creativity and artistic expression; on the other, to raise awareness about the importance of biodiversity and protecting the planet.

II. Tema: The central theme is the relationship between cholera and biodiversity. How can we use humor to address the conflicts that threaten our natural environment?
