•  < 500 projects in the last 5 years within EU actions (120 multilateral projects)


Interculturality background (ii)

•  “But the development of intercultural competencies and skills as part of an overall political vision or national strategy on life-long learning processes has yet to be achieved” (ERICarts: Sharing diversity, p. viii)

•  To move towards a strategy of intercultural dialogue “it is necessary to move from traditional canons to open processes of creative interaction” by developing “intercultural skills and competencies through educational and media programmes” (ibid., p. 146-7)
