The city of Bucharest (Romania) will host the first of a series of Learning clusters on cultural competence. This training targets a small number of Intercultural Cities’ reference persons, and will then be extended to all professional levels within public administration agencies, companies, council administrations, and service organizations, as well as to relevant associations. It is oriented toward a practical rather than a theoretical approach to intercultural competence development and application. The clusters will also develop methods and tools to help public administration personnel working within multiethnic societies.

Twenty officials representing 12 Intercultural cities have registered in the event taking place on 8 April. A similar training will be organised on 7 April for officials of Bucharest Municipality.
