Touching diversity! Mediterranean Artisans in a creative dialogue

Artisans from European and Mediterranean countries will be meeting their Maltese counterparts in various local markets to exhibit their crafts while creating new items and sharing their techniques. The artisans will demonstrate how we can experience other cultures through the sense of touch, thus enhancing intercultural dialogue through common ground and an acquired understanding of each other’s tradecraft.

The initiative devised by Koperattiva Kummerċ Ġust, Malta’s Fair Trade organisation, forms part of the 5 senses project for the 2008 European Year of Intercultural Dialogue in Malta.
