In the face of environmental challenges, we are acutely aware of the intricate interconnectedness and interdependence of humanity. Our choices reverberate globally, underscoring the imperative for a shift towards a more inclusive, cooperative ethos to confront pressing issues like climate change and to build a community with a shared future for mankind. With the goal of advancing ecological civilization, China Daily in partnership with relevant organizations presents the International Cartoon and Illustration Exhibition on a Community with a Shared Future for Mankind 2024. This initiative aims to attract attention to and encourage contemplation on the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind through the innovative mediums of cartoons and illustrations.

The theme of the exhibition is "One Earth", calling on everyone to work together to address global environmental issues such as biodiversity conservation, marine pollution, and climate change, and to achieve the United Nations' 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. With art serving as a unifying force, the exhibition invites cartoonists, illustrators, and art enthusiasts worldwide to wield their brushes and portray a vision of verdant landscapes, pristine waters, low-carbon living, and the harmonious coexistence of humanity and nature.
