Mission and Objectives

Cultural Synergies is an independent, non-profit organization active in the wider area of ​​culture. We address the community, especially young people, through actions in the fields of culture and education, and favor acceptance, respect and harmonious coexistence of diversity.
Our ultimate goal is to raise public awareness through experiential actions of art and discourse, the need to promote and defend social rights. It also encourages synergies between representatives of civil society, governmental bodies and other bodies responsible for cultural, social and political planning.

Main Projects / Activities

In the context of the up-to-date dialogue on multiculturalism and the access of society to inclusive and cultural participation, we propose the organization of a "Festival of Mediterranean Culture" and events with key sources of expression and creation of cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue as expressed through a Cinematic tribute, Art Exhibition and Talks. The events with the general title: "Cultures In Between" refer to civilizations in transition and movement in the geographical area and real time, as well as issues of difference and similarity, peculiarities and contradictions.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

In essence, we are addressing an open call for intercultural dialogue to create a fertile ground for social reflection in order to create a fairer and more sustainable society. Free access to all services and events of the Cultural Collaborations is based on the support of European and international organizations.
