The Association Meditaeuropa presents itself in the form of a Laboratory for the dialogue between peoples and cultures within the Euro-Mediterranean area, and it actually develops from the project called "Meditaeuropa", created since 2005.
Meditaeuropa has become an association with the purpose of achieving the following main goals:
promoting and reinforcing the dialogue, interaction, recognition, mutual respect and cooperation among peoples and cultures within the Euro-Mediterranean area;
identifying, developing and promoting spaces for cultural encounters among all Euro-Mediterranean countries and their people;
contributing to the Barcelona Process;
promoting the Euro-Mediterranean dimension of Ravenna and its territory;
Its action will therefore develop according to the following points:
organisation of meetings, discussions, conferences, seminars, concerts, theatre performances, art exhibitions and festivals;
access to the whole network of organisations committed to the same objectives of our Association;
stimulation of encounters, mutual knowledge and interaction with the immigrant communities in our territory.
The Festival Meditaeuropa is a cultural event organised by the Association Meditaeuropa with the support of the main institutions of the Province of Ravenna. It will be dedicated to the Mediterranean area, conceived as common space shared by peoples.
This Festival will offer a variety of events which will develop the conference's topic in multiple forms. The main theme "Mare Nostrum: the Mediterranean as both frontier and bridge that unites and divides" will indeed be observed according to a number of perspectives, from photographic exhibitions, literary meetings, cinema, music, to our "Dialogues", involving special speakers whose political, literary or academic work has been appreciated on the international level.
Our intent is to allow a multiple encounter and exchange of voices, languages, and experiences, which could generate tangible common spaces within the increasingly multi-ethnic city of Ravenna.
