29 March 2023, 15:30 – 17:30 hours (CET), Online Debate 3
Deconfining – a 4-years EU project – aims at enhancing the international cultural exchange between cities and regions which implement(ed) Capitals of Culture or similar initiatives. The project has a special focus on Africa and EU/rope. By the means of cultural and artistic exchange as well as updated policies, different confined attitudes and stereotypes should be overcome.
As one of the first steps, we elaborated a study on the status and potential for improvement of international (cultural) cooperation between Africa and EU/rope. By the means of online debates, we aim at establishing sustainable intercontinental communities and platforms for debate.
Debate 3 is dedicated to: “Momentum to improve intercontinental relations between Africa and EU/rope: How can we all be actors of better cooperation?” which includes the presentation of the results of the Deconfining Study, an intercontinental forum for debate of actors of cooperation, and an intercontinental political conversation. We are looking forward meeting you soon!
