“UNESCO”

Second Regional Expert Consultations on Intercultural Competencies for Peacemaking, UNESCO, 11 July 2023, 10:00 to 12:00 GMT+2, (Paris, France, but online).

UNESCO’s Social and Human Sciences Sector has launched the UNESCO Series of Regional Expert Consultations on Intercultural Competencies for Peacebuilding. Through these consultations, UNESCO aims to explore the potential of the development of intercultural and socio-emotional skills to serve as an enabler for peace in fragile, conflict-affected and post-conflict contexts.

The second out of six regional expert consultations will focus on Asia and the Pacific and will bring together experts to discuss the main challenges to intercultural understanding in the region, the role of intercultural skills in building trust among different parties and ways of improving intercultural competence to better promote peacebuilding efforts, paying particular attention to the role of women and youth. The consultations are open to the public. The discussion will be held in English.
