Mural promoting responsible life choices unveiled near a new school in Pavlodar

A mural highlighting youth responsibility and law-abiding behaviour, has been completed in Pavlodar, El.kz reports citing the organisers’ project.

The composition features two young people at its centre. The artists have illustrated the light and dark sides of life reflecting the choice between integrity, responsibility and harmful habits.

The mural is located next to a school currently under construction. The location was selected with schoolchildren and young residents of the city in mind, ensuring that they would have an opportunity to see the artwork.

The new artwork is aligned with the promotion of the “Law and Order” principle. The project organisers expect that street art will help raise young people’s awareness of crime prevention and the importance of a healthy lifestyle.

The organisers’ statement does not specify how the mural’s impact on adolescents’ behaviour will be assessed.
