Mystisches Bild vom Dachstein: Durch dichten Nebel hindurch

Our vision

To create spaces for dialogue and ideas and encourage respectful interactions, thereby strengthening democracy and promoting tolerance worldwide.

Our mission

Our aim is to bring together individuals living in diverse realities to experience and explore tolerance collectively. Each year, we adopt a new theme, engaging with it from various perspectives through lectures, discussions, concerts, theatre performances and accompanying scholarship programmes. We provide a platform for cultural exchange and reﬂection on the signiﬁcance, boundaries and practice of tolerance for a peaceful and democratic future.
