What is Cultural Diplomacy to you? By Chris Castro, Co-founder / Executive Director, IDEAS for Us

“Cultural Diplomacy is exactly what we are doing while hanging out with our friends during these conferences, having a drink after work, or talking on Facebook in a couple of months to stay in touch. We have learned so much hearing about each other and sharing connections with one another. Cultural Diplomacy in action is creating trust and relationships between people around the world, between different cultures. In this sort of action-oriented approach we realized that only mutual relationships allow action to really take place. Being able to harness the power of other cultures is extremely important. It was an epiphany”.
