Details
Can we have a talk about the city in a different way? That's what the graphic novel METRO O1O is about. The transformation processes in the city are becoming increasingly complex, the social challenges greater, and it seems increasingly difficult to involve the young generation in these processes. What does the city still have to do with them? METRO O1O is a book about the past and future of Rotterdam, which was created by 18 illustrators, and has now been distributed free of charge to 15,000 pre-school students in Rotterdam to engage them - the city makers of tomorrow - in topics such as mobility, climate, inclusion and migration.
