Celebrating Our Diversity 2023 edition

"It was a beautiful reminder of our values." Ieva Ulianskaite (Positive YOUth Sweden) 

The fifth edition of Celebrating Our Diversity Forum took place on 15 and 16 November with the participation of more than 60 civil society members from Sweden, Germany and Lebanon. Members and alumni of the Anna Lindh Foundation networks hosted workshops and participated in networking discussions.

The networks coordinators hosting the Forum sent a clear message that we need dialogue more than ever and that there is no place for violence among us. 

Special thanks to the Forum facilitator Karin Bruce (LärOlika, Sweden).

The Forum was originally planned to take place in Beirut but the organisers hosted it online due to the current situation in the Middle East.

We are looking forward to Celebrating Our Diversity family reunion in 2024! 

Organised by the National Museums of World Culture (Head of the Swedish ALF Network), Goethe-Institut (Head of the German ALF Network) and the Lebanese National Commission for UNESCO (Head of the Lebanese ALF Network) and with the support of the Anna Lindh Foundation, European Commission, the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Swedish Dialogue Institute MENA.
