At its anniversary edition, Street Delivery Bucharest asked the public: what has it achieved in its 20 years? What role could it take on from now on? To fix the gaps in generations, opinions, and needs, we brought dialogue back into the public space.
From virtual rooms, social media walls, and billboards, we took to the streets to fearlessly address the issues that hurt or scare us. Together with civil society, ARDOR Muntenia, social entrepreneurs, and representatives of professional associations, Street Delivery is reclaiming public space as safe space for discussions on the city and its society.
We brought forth 6 themes about the city and its people, 6 billboards that marked and accompanied the street, 6 ambassadors who set the tone for invitations to talk, play, learn, empathise, helping all those who want to bring questions, dilemmas, and discussions into the public space, in order to reconnect, to (re)find common ground for living together.
