Intercult is an independent production and resource unit based in Stockholm, Sweden. We have worked in Europe since 1996, as initiator and leader of collaborative culture projects, networks and the development of intercultural and international project competence. We take an active interest in national and European cultural policy. We operate actively in several networks. We share experience through conferences, lectures and mentorship. We connect local and international initiatives, we work across disciplines and in multiple partnerships, contributing to citizen's discourse in Europe by providing an opportunity for direct participation in the policy making process. Since 2009 we are a Europe Direct office, engaging in cultural politics and citizen dialogue with the mission to inform, initiate debate and setting up a public space for dialogue in accordance with the EC´s communication priorities. Our objective is to highlight culture and creativity as a transversal vector for inclusion and growth.
