🔍 Studyvisit from Türkiye focusing on integration The long tradition of local self-government in Sweden and the experiences of Swedish municipalities and regions contribute to our projects in several ways. Therefore, we often involve experts from SALAR and Swedish municipalities and regions in our projects. One example of how this is done concretely is through study visits. On March 4-8, a representative of the Ҫukurova Regional Union of municipalities and representatives of 6 Turkish municipalities participated in a study visit to Sweden. The aim of the visit was to introduce Swedish experiences of working with integration of refugees into society, Swedish language and to the job market. The studyvisit included for example: ◾ an introduction to Sveriges Kommuner och Regioner (SALAR) and the Swedish system by SALARs migration expert Lotta Dahlérus ◾ visits to Gottsunda in Uppsala municipality and the Stockholm district Bagarmossen to learn about their successful examples of working with integration.

The European Heritage Days are the most widely celebrated participatory cultural event shared by the people of Europe. The Council of Europe launched the initiative in 1985, and in 1999 was joined by the European Union to create the joint action, which has continued up to the present day. Conceivably, the Programme, which can boast up to 20 million visitors every year, generates the greatest value, Euro for Euro, of any “European” cultural project. Held in September each year, EHD events – often called Heritage Open Days - take place in the countries party to the European Cultural Convention. The aims of the European Heritage Days are to: - raise the awareness of European citizens to the richness and cultural diversity of Europe - create a climate in which the appreciation of the rich mosaic of European cultures is stimulated - counter racism and xenophobia and encourage greater tolerance in Europe and beyond the national borders - inform the public and the political authorities about the need to protect cultural heritage against new threats - invite Europe to respond to the social, political and economic challenges it faces #formicals #teknikkimya #europeanheritagedays #europe #heritagedays

"Global policies that support the mobility of artists and a balanced flow of cultural goods and services around the world are essential. There is a severe imbalance in the flow of cultural goods and services. Developed countries dominate the global cultural services trade, accounting for 95% of total exports while those from least developed countries account for just 0.5%, making them almost invisible." New UNESCO video on the need for preferential treatment measures to support the balanced flow of cultural goods and services, as per Article 16 of the UNESCO 2005 Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions, ratified by more than 150 Member States, and which calls for "developed countries [to] facilitate cultural exchanges with developing countries by granting, through the appropriate institutional and legal frameworks, preferential treatment to artists and other cultural professionals and practitioners, as well as cultural goods and services from developing countries". The UNESCO-Aschberg Programme is the operational tool of the 2005 Convention to provide capacity-bulding to Member States in improving the implementaiton of this instrumental article.

It is essential to address that imbalance in the flow of cultural goods and services.
