Description
Summary:	On February 26, 2018, cartoonist Abdullah Al Morshed, who uses the name Morshed Mishu, uploaded the first illustration of his 11-part series "The Global Happiness Challenge." The series shows comparison visuals of photos of a war-torn world and illustrations of what can be. The artist used photos of war that were widely circulating around social media to create illustrations with a more positive narrative. "The Global Happiness Challenge" gained worldwide recognition as it eventually was viewed by many people (i.e., "went viral"). Media from various countries reported on the series and discussed its impact. This case involves the impact a series of illustrations can have on creating awareness against war and how a single artist from a small developing country can have an international impact with graphic visuals. This case study looks at the aftermath of these illustrations around the world and considers how it raised awareness against war among many people.
