About the Program

The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy created the program “Cultural Bridges in Germany” to strengthen relations between Germany’s cultural communities, exploring the benefits of a multi-cultural society, and analyzing Germany’s increasing role as a regional and global power.

In order to pursue these goals, the program works to bring together individuals of diverse cultural and professional backgrounds from across Germany and beyond. Through weeklong seminars and academic conferences, stakeholders can discuss salient economic, political, and cultural issues and become part of a sustainable network of likeminded individuals.
