> Your Europe - contribute to the diversity consultation
> From now until 16 May you can rewrite how Europe should tackle
> cultural diversity. Help shape the future by going online and
> responding to a paper produced by the 'Rainbow Platform' - Civil
> Society Platform for Intercultural Dialogue, an initiative of the ECF
> and Culture Action Europe (EFAH) - facilitated by LabforCulture.
>
> You can comment on the recommendations in the paper and even add your
> own submissions!
> Just log on to the site http://rainbowplatform.labforculture.org
> quickly register, read Rainbow Paper II and contribute your
> comments/changes.
>
> This paper brings many issues of intercultural dialogue to the fore.
> Should there be a system of monitoring and reporting on the practice
> of intercultural dialogue, and if so, who should do this? Is it right
> that the EU should 'mainstream' diversity policies in its various
> programmes? Can there be an agreed 'European standard' for supporting
> culture?
>
> The set of recommendations is very much a work-in-progress. Your
> constructive feedback is absolutely vital. The results will be
> discussed at a plenary meeting of the Rainbow Platform in Brussels on
> June 4th 2008 - the same date on which the Platform becomes an
> officially recognised discussion partner with the EU institutions.
>
> The Rainbow Paper process started in January 2008 at the launch of
> the European Year of Intercultural Dialogue and the start of the
> Slovenian EU Presidency. LabforCulture is committed to facilitating
> public participation and knowledge exchange and to linking the
> cultural sector to European-wide cross-sectoral issues.
>
> Let the platform know your thoughts. The Platform intends to present
> a set of standard-setting recommendations at the European Year of
> Intercultural Dialogue 2008 closing colloquium.
