"Drawing peace between Agrate and Iraq" is a project that aims to build bridges of solidarity between Italy and Iraq through art: four urban art workshops will be proposed to young people from Sulaymaniya, in Iraqi Kurdistan, at the youth centre "Tobacco Factory" with which Un Ponte Per has been collaborating for some time, and where trainer and drawer Simone Rossoni, in art "Vermi di Rouge", will accompany the project.

In Lombardy, on the other hand, a workshop will be offered to studentsə of the Enzo Bontempi Secondary School (MB), with which UPP has been collaborating for years on educational projects for pre-adolescents; and one at the 'Sulè' Multipurpose Centre for young people in Agrate Brianza, managed by the Sulè Onlus Association, thanks to the training of Marzia Formoso, in art 'Miss Nais'.

At the end of the workshops, which will involve 30 young people in Iraq and 30 in Italy, 6 murals will be made on the theme of building peace and bonds of solidarity between the two countries, and a photographic volume will be produced to recount this moment of exchange.
