One of the most prominent figures in Turkish media, Dündar is the 2016 recipient of the Committee to Protect Journalists’ International Press Freedom Award in the US. He has been living in exile in Berlin since June 2016. Anwar is an Egyptian-Sudanese comic artist and political cartoonist. He was among the new wave of young political cartoonists who emerged in Egypt in the final years of former dictator Hosni Mubarak. The Egyptian revolution that broke out in 2011 was central to Anwar's development as an artist. His work defends the values of social justice, freedom of expression, and equality in Egyptian society; as a result, his cartoons have attracted international attention. After the retraction of political reforms in Egypt in 2011, Anwar was arrested in 2019 and deported. He now lives in Berlin. L.L.
