3rd European Forum: 'Programme Interculture' - Enabling and Nourishing Dialogue

The intercultural transformation of our societies is a complex programme. The Platform for Intercultural Europe promotes it as a network and through EU advocacy. This forum presented different tools for its work and gave space to discussion. Members of the Platform for Intercultural Europe presented their intercultural projects. All participants explored their intercultural competence in a conference game.

Some programme headlines:

• Changing Mindsets, Practices & Institutions
• Informing, Building Collective Intelligence & Developing Actions
• Advancing Intergovernmental Cooperation On The Intercultural Opening Of Cultural Institutions

The meeting took place in two contrasting venues: the 'Maison des Cultures' of the Brussels commune of Saint-Gilles and the Centre Borschette of the European Commission. This corresponded to both the Platform's engagement with grassroots' intercultural work and its dialogue with political partners - Vladimir Sucha, Director for Education and Culture, and Giulia Amaducci, policy officer from the integration policy unit of Commission DG Home Affairs, in this case.
