Applications are now open for the Culture Wide Tandem, the new exchange program for African countries and Germany to explore the history of colonialism from many perspectives and to deal with their postcolonial present. You develop projects in culture, education and sustainability that you can implement together in Germany.
In the kulturweit tandem, two participants each from an African country and Germany deal with the history of colonialism and its effects on the present. Together you will develop projects against racism that you can implement in theatres, museums and schools, in clubs, initiatives or in companies in Germany.
