Title: European Year of Intercultural Dialogue - Brussels Debate 1 View count: 67 Rating: 0 (0 ratings) Description: Europe is becoming more culturally diverse. The enlargement of the European Union, deregulation of employment laws and globalisation have increased the multicultural character of many countries, adding to the number of languages, religions, ethnic and cultural backgrounds found on the continent. As a result, intercultural dialogue has an increasingly important role to play in fostering European identity and citizenship. The European Year of Intercultural Dialogue (EYID) 2008 recognises that Europe's great cultural diversity represents a unique advantage. It will encourage all those living in Europe to explore the benefits of our rich cultural heritage and opportunities to learn from different cultural traditions. Among the projects related to the EYID, seven debates will be held in Brussels throughout 2008, covering a range of intercultural dialogue issues from interfaith dialogue to multilingualism and the role of the media. The debates are designed to provide a platform for reflection and exchange of ideas which can contribute to policy discussion on intercultural dialogue.
