Cultural Bridging fosters cross-cultural awareness between newcomers and the local host community, bringing together diverse cultural groups to share and learn from each other. By providing cross-cultural opportunities such as workshops, presentations and events, bridges of understanding are built. This shared transfer of cultural knowledge and experience creates a more harmonious community where everyone can participate in the social, economic and cultural life.
