Interculture map:
a forum of discussion and
the Africa e Mediterraneo journal n. 56/57

Interculture map is an European research which has analysed the landscape
of intercultural projects in Europe through a series of paths and maps. The
research has explored different areas in which an intercultural practise
could take place: media, art, education, research and everyday life. The
research focused especially on particular experiences which can be regarded
as good practises.
The project has been funded by the INTI programme -Migrants integration- of
the European Commission (DG Justice, Freedom and Security) and by the
Compagnia di San Paolo and it has been realized by Lai-momo
cooperative(Italy),  Agora research group - Universidad de Huelva (Spain),
CBAI (Belgium) and MKC (Rep. Czech).

The Forum: give your contribute to the discussion
Paths built for the research, have been published on the Interculture map
website in order to offer an effective instrument of consultation and a
shared resource.
With the same aim a forum of discussion has been activated on the website
(www.interculturemap.org). It aims to animate the debates on intercultural
issues faced by the European research which , from the beginning, has been
a open research ready to receive suggestions and contributions.
Interculture map wishes to realise a virtual space for a public and shared
dialogue in which institution, association and citizens can meet and find
common solutions.

The journal Africa e Mediterraneo n. 56/57
Dossier: Interculture map. Azioni interculturali in Europa
(Interculture map. Intercultural actions in Europe)

The dossier is dedicated to the research project Interculture map.
This research moves from the consideration that Europe has recently
assisted to a large increase of initiatives (cultural, social, mediatic,
educational) aiming to discover solutions to the pacific coexistence
between people coming from different countries and social environments. In
this sense Interculture map proposes different paths and routes through
this mare magnum with the intention of building a sort of "map" helping the
research through different projects, the knowledge of the different ideas
and enhancing the possibility of promoting new good practises.



The journal
Africa e Mediterraneo journal is edited by Africa e Mediterraneo
association (www.africaemediterraneo.it) and is published by Lai-momo
cooperative. It is a quaterly journal which, from 1992, aims to analyse and
to go into depth with the issues related on economic, historical and
cultural issues in the African context. Moving from an
anthropologically-oriented editorial policy, Africa e Mediterraneo seeks a
critical understanding of the global cultural flows and the cultural forms
which define Africa in the late twentieth century. The journal presents
occasions where cultural and social differences emerge as public phenomena,
manifested in everything from highly localized cultural events, to popular
culture or to global consumption and information networks. Each number is
composed by a dossier and articles of African literature, art, cinema,
philosophy and music, in addiction there are also articles related to
intercultural themes, cooperation, education to development and migration.
