Loss and Misrepresentation of Cultures

We want for cultures that are not being heard to be heard and cultures that are misrecognised to be known for what they really are.


Recent trends show that communities and individuals are increasingly disengaging from their cultural heritage, leading to the decline of various cultures. This project aims to address this issue by fostering a sense of belonging and pride in cultural traditions, thus preventing the loss of cultural identities.

The project will also address cultural misrepresentation, a problem amplified by social media and television. Regions such as Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Western Europe face challenges in maintaining their cultural identities amidst rapid modernization and inaccurate media portrayals.

Activities will include educational workshops, community events, and media literacy programs to promote cultural preservation and accurate representation. Through storytelling, traditional arts, and cultural exchanges, the project seeks to celebrate and revitalize diverse cultures.

The ultimate goal is to create an inclusive global community that values and respects cultural heritage, ensuring that future generations can appreciate the richness of diverse cultural traditions.
