AkzoNobel, MasterPeace colour 100 walls globally


AkzoNobel NV and global peace movement MasterPeace have reached the milestone of creating 100 “walls of connection” in more than 30 cities this year. The 100th mural was painted at the AkzoNobel education centre in Badshahpur, Gurgaon, India.
The partnership was announced with the first mural in Rotterdam, the Netherlands in March of this year, and has since revitalized walls in cities around the world including Jakarta, Indonesia; Quito, Ecuador; London, UK; and Karachi, Pakistan.
Let’s Colour Walls of Connection has demonstrated the power of paint brands, such as Dulux, to uplift communities and make living spaces more livable and enjoyable. In fun and surprising ways, these walls have brought communities together in celebrating unity, kindness and connection.
The 100th mural was painted at one location of AkzoNobel’s education project in India. Named ‘parivartan’, meaning ‘change’, the project has transformed the lives of more than 5,000 children by getting them back into school with bridge education and ensuring they continue their education and improve their grades. The Gurgaon location provides education to children from unprivileged backgrounds.
