According to the Council of Europe’s model of intercultural integration, active citizenship and participation are enabling factors to successfully build cities where real equality is actively sought, diversity is regarded positively and meaningful interaction between diverse individuals and groups is engineered. Active citizenship and participation help to ensure that no-one is left aside, that even those who do not enjoy formal citizenship have a voice into shaping their local society.

Active citizenship and participation were identified as priorities on which the Intercultural Cities (ICC) programme is going to work on 2024-2025.

This Workshop (Strasbourg, 5 June 2024) is designed to provide participants with practical examples on how active citizenship can successfully be included in an intercultural approach and strategy. Participants will have the opportunity to exchange their experiences with peers and experts.
