This year there are some notable differences, two monographes: an author monographe and a thematic monographe. It will also discuss about proposing projects that address the different social issues. Some of the projects are made in Barcelona, where there are children suffering from social exclusion, and so they have decided to talk about their neighborhood and express their feelings through the media.
