Sound of Diversity is a large-scale Network of Towns which aims at reinforcing the role of local authorities in the filed of diversity promotion, anti-discrimination and inclusion of minorities.
We are connecting local areas that host high-visibility events, such as:
- the Gaming Village Festival in Obidos (PT),
- the Khamoro Romani Festival in Prague (CZ),
- the Multitude Festival in Country of Seine-Saint-Denis (FR),
- the Festival of Various Arts in Aleksandrow Lodski (PL),
- the Festival of Tolerance (CR),
- Cultural days of Barlad (RO),
- the People Feast in Molfetta (IT),
- the Greek Dance Fest in Kileler (GR),
- Summer Dying Loud Festival (PL).
During each of these community events, on top of the regular, well established formats of network of towns, such as: conferences, hands-on sessions (training and seminars), exchanges of good practices, study trips, capacity building workshops, experts inputs addressed to partners’ representatives and stakeholders, will be enhanced by an open-air Sound of Diversity Stage – an open community space meant to engage with local people, activists, youth, minority representatives and experts on topics related to diversity management, anti-discrimination, inclusion, and the EU initiatives, policies and vision in this field.
The Sound of Diversity Stage will introduce new formats, artisric and creative performances to address transnational topics pertinent to EU policies, enabling the tackling of local policies and programmes in a renewed, fresh and often challenged perspective and by incorporating: inclusive approach, mainstreamed intersectional antidiscrimination and gender equality.
