Dear Friends of the Italian Network,
It is with great pleasure that I invite you all to the press conference and show called: "The Shoe Must Go On" on 25 and 26 May, which is one of the two final outcomes of "Acting Diversity", an intercultural theatre  project from political refugees and young people co-financed by the Anna Lindh Foundation.
After meetings in Marseille and in preparation for the Venetian days, which we would like to inform you about in more detail through this project, it seems a wonderful idea to have your direct participation in this journey we have undertake that makes an important connection between theatre and intercultural dialogue focusing on the asset of diversity.
The project is inserted into our Schools Festival, which is host to more than 2700 children from all over Italy every year.
If you would like to come and/or help us spread the good news…we would be very grateful.
Warmest regards, while looking forward to Venice.

Dearest Friends
This is simply to inform you that the Marche Region will be hosting the project tomorrow. Attached, you’ll find a brief programme during which a very beautiful film will be projected: “Closed Sea” by Andrea Segre.
Attached you will also find the text of the Rome Charter, a highly important code of ethics for journalists dealing with subjects linked to immigration and racism.
There are still more stages to come, including Venice (5 days and a general meeting) and Naples (I need to know from Michele whether and what he can organize for the occasion. We’ll be in touch soon).
At the same time, the process of bringing together the Mediterranean Laboratories in Lampedusa is advancing. We are taking bookings.
Best wishes

Carlo Testini

The MEDITERRANEAN FORUM OF THE ANNA LINDH FOUNDATION (ALF) took place in Marseille.
The event brought together more than 1000 animators and organizers from civil society organizations, in additions to politicians and  is aims to become a reference point, on the one hand, for the relaunch of Euro-Mediterranean dialogue following the Arab Spring uprisings, and for developing an understanding of the social impact of the economic  crisis in Europe, on the other.
The  “recommendations” resulting from the various debates, seminars and meetings will form a road map for a better euro-med policy, in addition to developing and strengthening ALF’s own intercultural mission. In fact, a Steering Committee was set up for the Forum with the Parliamentary Assembly and Secretariat of the Union for the Mediterranean, the European Commission and the Arab League.
