Our approach
1
Art and music as catalysts
for intercultural & interreligious dialogue
Our project places a significant emphasis on the transformative power of art and music. These mediums are not merely forms of entertainment but rather potent tools that have the capacity to transcend cultural and religious boundaries
2
Fostering intercultural collaboration through artistic creation
We provide a platform for artists and creators to collaborate across diverse cultural backgrounds, resulting in a tapestry of artistic expressions that reflect the richness of Europe’s various traditions.
3
Recognising the cultural & historical significance of religious heritage sites
We acknowledge the significance of historic places of worship as repositories of centuries-old traditions, stories, and artistry. Our goal is to bring these sites to life, allowing the public to connect with them through innovative approaches like podcasts and immersive experiences.
4
An interdisciplinary approach
Our project embraces an interdisciplinary approach with the engagement of a wide range stakeholders, including cultural heritage experts, music professionals, confessional organisations, and cultural and religious mediators.
