That’s a wrap on the Graffiti ABC training course as part of Creative Canvas project 🎨✨
Over an intensive 6 days, our very own Rijad and Draško led an incredible group of 20 young people, youth workers, and educators from our partner organizations through a powerful journey of art and activism.
Together, we put our newly developed Graffiti ABC Guidebook to the test, exploring how creative, non-formal education can become a shield against gender-based discrimination, bullying, cyberbullying, and hate speech. Seeing the participants transform these complex social issues into practical skills for public campaigns and grassroots activism was deeply inspiring.
Huge thanks to all the participants who brought their energy, passion, and vision to the table. 🚀
Youth Centre Perspektiva from Albania together with its partners Hate Fighters Network (HFN) from Serbia, Beyond Borders from Italy and Obojena Klapa from Bosnia and Herzegovina implements a capacity building project “Creative Canvas” to tackle issues of discrimination, hate speech, cyberviolence and gender-based discrimination and violence through creative tools and methods in work with young people. The main aim of the project is separated in two dimensions: a) identifying, consolidating and promoting existing best practices of using art as a tool for activism; and b) creating and enabling an environment to develop new approaches to countering, preventing and fighting cyberbullying, hate speech, discrimination and gender-based violence. Creative Canvas project will be implemented from November 2025 to October 2027, with activities in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Italy and Serbia. Creative Canvas project is co-financed by the European Union.
