Declaration on Intercultural Dialogue

Major European arts and culture festivals from 17 countries have signed the Arts Festivals’ Declaration on Intercultural Dialogue (pictured) at a ceremony in Ljubljana in Slovenia.

The Declaration, which is an initiative of the European Festivals Association (EFA), aims to highlight the way that festivals can promote such dialogue. EFA hopes to widen the circle of festivals, national associations and cultural networks engaged in intercultural dialogue and foster closer collaboration among them.
