Immerse yourself in new worlds

Breaking down prejudices, valuing cultural diversity

Around the World

FAIR Association! - FAIR - Around the Word Scotland

Background

In Switzerland, 40% of the population have a history of migration. Our society is characterised by people from all over the world, from diverse cultures and countries. However, there is often a lack of understanding of this enriching diversity.

Our approach

Around the World shows people new worlds and emphasises unifying elements. At the same time, new and unfamiliar things are thematised in order to promote understanding, openness and mutual respect.

It's such a nice idea to learn more about other countries. It was a really varied evening and it was nice to learn about Scotland. Especially the food part.
