ACD - Agency for Cultural Diplomacy

Our Activities / Aktivitäten

Cultural Diplomacy (Kulturdiplomatie):

encounters, dialogues, collaborations toward 2030 ... 

 

Our aim is to actively contribute to the improvement of relations within diverse structures and within the human world and nature. All ACD-action platforms are listed on the ACD webpage/HOME and briefly introduced.

Each field of action consists of the following activities and components in general: practical research, learning materials, productions, projects, educational sessions, media pages, and other instruments and forms of practice and promoting activities.

Each action platform is represented and supported by ACD- Ambassadors, ACD- team of experts, and partners for the particular field.

 

In this regard, ACD creates strategic partnerships with individuals, communities, and organizations in Vienna, Austria, and international, to exchange, share, and further develop good practices which will endorse sustainable development policy implementation and support activities that endorse  Sustainable Development and achievement of the Global Goals (SDG´s) through, mainly through art-based guidance in education, science, and cultural diplomacy, 

 

Cultural diplomacy requires a variety of skills and competencies, in particular familiarity with the art and science of presentation and representation of values in their specific geo-cultural, geo-political, and within the universal context, so as presentation and exchange of practices in a multicultural environment with actors from various practical and theoretical fields.

 

ACD activities are implemented and executed by the ACD president.

To achieve a level of cooperation, the ACD team emphasizes complementarity rather than competition in positioning activities on ACD- priority agendas, fairly and equitably among existing actors, promotes cultural diplomacy through its own initiatives, and will actively support other initiatives in the field following the objectives, guiding principles and goals of the 

2005UNESCO convention on The protection and promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions.
