About

In an increasingly globalized world, diversity and representation have become central to children’s literature, and creativity is facing new priorities.

 

Two distinguished illustrators from the Philippines engage in a lively discussion on the issues confronting their work, and its implications for both their local markets and those that serve a global audience.

Join them in moving past notions of “best practices” to arrive at truly equitable artistic expression.

 

Isabel Roxas and Fran Alvarez
