The "Manifesta!" educational kit includes the catalogue (which contains the best cartoons and the complete text of the Charter of Rights of the EU), 16 posters, and 16 postcards with the most effective and communicative illustrations of the charter’s six points.
Posters and postcards make it easy, simple, and free to set up exhibitions within classrooms; the catalogue is a useful instrument to study the Charter in more depth, using the starting points offered by the artists.

The catalogue presents the best cartoons made for the project “Manifesta!”.

The catalogue presents the best cartoons made for the project “Manifesta!”. The images illustrate the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union by going through its six constitutive headings; a brief introductory text suggests a reflection on the importance of the process of European integration in order to maintain peace and prosperity in our continent. The publication ends with the complete text of the Charter of Rights in Italian, French and Czech, which are the languages of the projects’ partners.

The illustrations have been made both by professional artists from Italy, France, the Czech Republic, Nigeria, Senegal, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Benin; as well as by participants to the “Manifesta!” international competition, open to artists of all nationalities.
The 70 published drawings were chosen amongst more than a hundred; they are divided according to the 6 fundamental rights and accompanied by an indication of which heading of the Charter they refer to, which makes it easy to look further into its content.
