After an eight-year hiatus the International Nasreddin Hodja Cartoon Contest recommenced in November 2021. Illustrators from around the world came together in the name of a more peaceful and tolerant world for the 41st iteration of the contest.

The selection committee, comprised of five jury members from Turkey, evaluated 2050 cartoons by 690 artists from a total of 63 countries. This book contains the work from those who participated, exhibited, and were awarded.
