sharing ideas and working across borders
Intercultural Dialogue Project – Laboratories of cross-cultural practices
“a room for research, experiment, and manufacture…”
”…any place, situation, set of conditions, or the like, conducive to experimentation, investigation, observation, etc.”
This project was a partnership between the Borderland Foundation in Poland, Laundry in the UK and the New Culture Foundation in Bulgaria. Over a two year period, the work was structured around creative laboratories using artistic practice in diverse multicultural communities. Each project partner undertook their own creative activities, primarily (though not exclusively) with young people, in their specific locality and in multicultural communities - where the issues may be matters of memory, destruction of cultural heritage and environment, social and ethnic conflict, immigration or community building. This work was shared through exchanges, seminars, presentations, publications and practical project opportunities.
This web site provides a snapshot of activity at any given point of the project, documenting some elements of each partners programme of work, points of debate and reflections on our experiences.
