YOUTH breaking down walls, ART for freedom and democracy (2019)

By Ana Dobrescu, FFA Team

In der aktionsreichen Projektwoche in Berlin besuchten wir Graffiti-Workshops, eine Street Art Tour und die Erlebnis Europa Exhibition. Wir diskutierten Menschenrechte und Demokratie in der EU und arbeiteten mit kreativen Methoden wie Improvisationstheater, Bodypainting, Postermaking, Graffiti und Modellgestaltung mit Recyclingmaterialien. Höhepunkt der Woche war die Human Rights EUnite,Urban Arts Festival Challenge, bei der die Teilnehmer*innen das Abenteuerzentrum mit den Kunstwerken der Wochenthemen füllten.

Top Rated Aktivitäten:

Street Art Workshop & Tour – we created a graffiti art piece that participants could take home, then toured street art pieces in the inner city and learned about the artists behind them. Forum Theater for Human Rights – we learned about human rights through improvisation theater. Street Art Neighbourhood – we designed models of street pieces for a run-down Berlin neighborhood to revive it with culture
