The main objectives of the 'STAR' are:

 

  • to increase solidarity and citizens' participation at a Union level

  • to promote opportunities for societal and intercultural engagement

  • to decrease stigmatization of migrants and minority groups

  • to connect people from different cultures

  • to use street art as a tool for rehabilitation of depressed and abandoned areas

 

The project has International and local activities.

 

The 4 international events will take place in Italy (Arcugnano, July 2021), Portugal (Lisbon, October 2021), Kosovo (Peja, April 2022) and the Netherlands (Amsterdam, May 2022). These events are meant to build a network among European cities and share the best practices on the use of street art for the regeneration of marginalized urban areas and increasing citizens' participation.

These paths are aimed at increasing social inclusion and active citizens' participation, promotion of non-formal education, and raising awareness about ethical themes of the project.
