Celebrating Citizens' Engagement through Street Art
BeSecure-FeelSecure demonstrates the importance of participatory decision-making, as students were empowered to co-shape their school courtyard with a truly unique design, that reflects their values and priorities.
The project’s graffiti contest winning design, created by the talented Greek graffiti artist Skitsofrenis, was selected by the students of the 13th High School of Piraeus. The design promotes sports and focuses on a basketball and social icon Giannis Antetokounmpo!
Enjoy a video of the graffiti creation, after a trip through the beautiful city of Piraeus!
