Immerse yourself in new worlds
Breaking down prejudices, valuing cultural diversity
Around the World
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.
Make your own Around the World
Would you like to present parts of a culture or a country to an audience and report on customs, traditions, culinary, political or similar topics?
What you can expect
Diversity
Experience the variety of diversity directly in and from your city.
Similarities
Discover common elements of different worlds.
Encounter
Space for constructive encounters between different realities of life.
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.
