Neighbourly hanger ( Serbia)

Many poor people every day dig through garbage bins looking for food, clothes and recycling materials. Of all the segments of the population, the Roma are the most vulnerable. This project was designed to raise awareness of food waste and recycling and to help the poorest citizens to use it; about 50% of wasted food in industrialized countries ends up in the trash even though it is edible. The idea is to place 'Neighborhood hanger' next to garbage container so that citizens can leave the food and clothing that would be available to users in a dignified manner and to contribute to the quality of life of local communities. Our idea is to include other artists, and 'attack' garbage containers in the city. Did not go with mobile platform or other applications since many people are poor and can't afford smart phones and computers.
