Why do we only talk about Portuguese history? 
What is on offer, culturally? 
Why did you sleep so long? 
Where's the park for children under 3? 
Where are the green areas? 
Are you pleased with the presidents we’ve had since the revolution? 
Why so much concrete? 
Where are the houses for people to live in?

Why doesn’t Faro have more gardens? 
Why people in Portugal are so nice? 
Why aren’t there more trees? 
Will a regionalisation mean a hospital, better roads and opening up to the sea, etc.? 
Why have they cut down on Christmas lights? 
Where's the park children under 3 can play in? 
Why is there no communal area? 
Why is there such a big deficit of cultural things to do? |
Why aren’t there any cheap houses to rent? 
Pourquoi visite Faro? 
Siete felici? 
What a small country, what a strange country, Faro is boring, do I like Faro? 
Why is there no temple in Faro? 
Why does something need to die for us to survive? 
Why is Faro big? 
Where would you go whitout fear?

Para quando a construção da cidade judiciaria em Faro? 
Quando fazem a ponte da praia de Faro? 
Porque tem tantos azulejos? 
Vamos continuar a evoluir? 
Why are there so many new buildings? 
Why isn’t a building that houses a thousand people being built? 
How many pink buildings are there in Faro? 
Why are you not bigger? |

A candidacy for the European Capital of Culture is about asking and listening!
The "Projecto Pregunta" aimed to foster debate in the public space and activate our collective knowledge. In Faro, the project included five actions with different groups. The public was invited to ponder questions on various social issues and civic awareness. It culminated in street interventions where a giant structure presented the results and encouraged the population to formulate new questions.
