Testimonials

The Anouk Foundation murals contribute to a calmer, welcoming, more engaging adn especially child-friendlier environment. It would be so helpful to have these murals in many more places.

Nina Hössli, Directrice du Programme Nationale, Save the Children, Switzerland

The murals create an uplifting atmosphere for the residents and the professionals working here. The theme of the drawings addresses the multicultural aspect of the place in a playful way. In the pre-kindergarden area European squirrels climb on a Asian camels back just as naturally as Eritrean and Afghan children play together.

Gabriel Phelippeau, Director Centre des Tattes, Hospice général, Geneva, Switzerland

Bouton
All participated : the residents young and old, the social team and the artists! All felt involved and respected! The project brought cohesion and life to the centre and what is great is that the project continues to live on long after the Anouk team has left.

Sandra Dessinoz, Director Centre Anières & Centre Présinge, Hospice général, Geneva, Switzerland

A girl has started a daily ritual of greeting every painted ladybug in the room, helping her with the transition and separation from her mother!

Pascale Escher, Social worker Centre Anières, Hospice général, Geneva, Switzerland

Bouton
The building transformed from institutional to colorful, no more white and gray walls everywhere ! We are impressed by the quality of the images and the value of the messages conveyed, especially along gender equality and respect of others. The children find the images fun and the adults think it is an improvement color, nature images and happy people on the walls.

Adult Centers

Testimonials

Bringing colour in collaboration with the residents was an obvious choice for us to give them joy. The change brought by the murals really is impressive, they completely transformed the atmosphere of this place for residents and the people who work here.

Gabriel Phelippeau, Director Centre des Tattes, Hospice général, Geneva, Switzerland

Bouton
The murals create a very calming and relaxing atmosphere in the center for asylum seekers. This has a very positive effect on the relationships between the residents.

Jérôme Sorg, Director Centre Lancy, Hospice général, Geneva, Switzerland

Bouton
For the asylum seekers it is really helpful to arrive in such a place where they can rest, breathe and day-dream a little bit. They have struggled so much during their exodus. One of our refugees, Mr F., often tells us that the murals bring joy and life! It’s an encouragement to integrate Switzerland for him.

Brahim El-Amri, Social worker, Hospice général, Geneva, Switzerland

Bouton
Refugee and asylum centers would greatly benefit from the Anouk Foundation murals. The residents benefited from the improved atmosphere and the participatory approach enabled them to be involved in various phases of the project.
