ASK ME! culture badges

“Culture Badges works within urban public spaces to encourage communication between ‘locals’ and people coming from abroad”

This short message, which sometimes refers to cultural, gastronomic or traditional issues, is nothing more than an excuse to attract people’s attentionand start a conversation. The badges announce a desire to integrate as well as an interest in preserving the wearer’s cultural roots.
