Occupied Schools Map
Mapa de Escolas Ocupadas was a mapping initiative, using Google Maps, created in 2015 by high school and undergraduate students of public schools protesting against different government reforms that impacted education, such as reorganization and the closing of public schools in Sao Paulo, a proposed constitutional amendment (PEC) addressing public budget and expenditure intended for education and health, among others and the reform of school's curriculum in Parana. In protest, the students occupied their public school and through the map, each initiative could be added by the protesters in order to make the occupation known and visible.
