In the words of the Three Cultures Foundation:

“The Mediterranean space has always been an area of ​​inspiration and reflection for those who coexist there. As the cradle of civilizations, it deserves that its legacy endure and that the paradigm of the relations that occur in it change.

International public life demands more than ever an extraordinary effort to eradicate extremisms and fundamentalisms that are imposed on dialogue and coexistence. The efforts of the Three Cultures Foundation to build bridges between societies are more necessary than at any other time and it is key to coordinate them to broaden horizons and gain effectiveness. Cultural diplomacy is an excellent tool that must address this emergency and the cultural development of the other. Therefore, after 20 years of incessant work in this field, the Foundation celebrates this work day by the hand of relevant authorities, experts, institutions and think tanks to jointly study the challenges that this Mediterranean in which we live and the role that plays institutions like this one. ”
