The "kultur.nachhaltig.leben" conference, which took place on the 22.11.2023, focused on the
holistic development of cultural heritage. It addressed the challenges of climate crisis, societal
divisions, and global conflicts, emphasizing innovative societal interactions and the significant impact
of cultural heritage on communities. This event brought together educators, cultural creators, and
decision-makers to discuss the intersection of culture and sustainability. Its themes resonated
strongly with Euro-Mediterranean cultural ideas, highlighting the importance of cultural heritage in
sustainable development, a key aspect of the culturally rich and diverse Euro-Mediterranean region.

Kulturverein wegather was established in summer 2017. The directors are Petra Nowak and Abdelnaby Snosy. General work for the organization is done on a voluntary basis by the two directors and additional volunteers (7-10 people). Staff is employed on a contract basis for the different projects. For 2018 we are planning with a budget of 70,000 EURO. As the organization is new there is no history of budgetary resources. Two concrete projects are planned for 2018: ZAM Days and WG-Kult. Most project costs will be covered through partnership deals, use of free resources (eg. Museum tickets for youth up to 19 years are free in many Austrian museums), and the income of the projects themselves (eg. Ticket sales). Additionally, we are counting on crowdfunding and sponsoring. Our Partners are working in the fields of arts, culture, education and integration. Modalities of action include musical concerts, seminars and cultural transfer.
Kulturverein wegather is seeking to bring together people from different countries, cultures and backgrounds. We strive to establish mutual understanding, acceptance and peace using arts and culture as tools.
1. ZAM Days (germ. Zeitgenössische Arabische Musik) Contemporary Arabic Music ZAM days is a music project in which a concert series of contemporary musicians from the MENA region takes place in Vienna, Austria and from there bursts into all directions to many other cities and countries in Europe. Target groups are Europeans interested in new cultures and young migrants who oftentimes face isolation both from their new and old homes. 2. WG-Kult brings together youth groups to self-organize cultural trips. Through the guidance of a peer members, supported by wegather, the groups will visit cultural institutions of all sizes and types, traditional trips into nature and Austrian companies offering insights into their production. An extra line of WG-Kult will offer the same possibility to senior citizens as currently many face isolations. This project aims to bring them back to society, make new experiences and build new social networks.
During the current decreasing public support for the intercultural agenda in Austria, private initiatives working on those topics are becoming increasingly important. Working under the assumption that every drop counts we have the will, ideas and experience to produce results. Moreover, we already established a wide network to cultural institutions in Austria which has the potential of being of benefit for the ALF network.
The Anna Lindh Foundation is in line with our beliefs and actions. Therefore, it is the logical next step to join the network in order to profit from intellectual input, getting to know new organizations and their projects, learn about best practices and keep updated with general developments.
