Culture and migration

Europe is facing very important issues on migration, identity and mobility. The political response on immigration has until now been confined on a security problem. Nevertheless, Europe must also step up to the challenge of deepening its knowledge and awareness of its own cultural diversity and also to bring out a possible European identity steeped in diversities. Through European examples, this seminar will try to answer the following questions on an interdisciplinary approach: How can the intercultural dialogue enhance our understanding of cultural diversity and migration? More specifically how museum and cultural programming can help us to think differently on the question of migration, mobility and identity?
