INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE

Fotoessa is systematically active in intercultural dialogue. Intercultural citizenship dialogue is a necessary, dynamic but also exciting process that promotes better understanding, mutual respect and connection between people of all cultures and backgrounds. We create “safe spaces” where participants can express themselves freely and equally, learn, cultivate empathy, mutual understanding and synergy. We try to bridge differences, recognize our own limitations and expand our perceptions. Participation in intercultural dialogue as citizens contributes to building stronger communities, strengthening common values but also recognizing diversity as a humanity enriching factor.
