Abstract (EN): In this chapter, we present a theoretical and analytical tour of the concept of Not in Employment, Education or Training (NEET) young people in the European context to broaden the adaptation of this concept to the Portuguese reality. We also propose a theoretical reflection on arts-based research and new perspectives for intervention in relation to the concept of the social inclusion of NEETs. We present and discuss in depth the empirical results obtained through the implementation of ‘The Neighbourhood is Ours!’, a workshop developed in the Cerco neighbourhood of Porto from May to July 2021. The focus of the chapter is an action research strategy oriented towards prevention–action—that is, demonstrating how the NEET young people who participated in the workshop initiatives used music and graffiti as a form of resistance against the diverse adversities they faced by being young, NEET and living in a social neighbourhood considered both problematic and deeply stigmatized. Starting from this premise, we wanted to discover whether these arts initiatives represented a future path for reducing insecurity and criminality.
