We call it convivenz

Best practice of coexisting

36 “In a time of polarization, increased racism and xenophobia, discrimination and exclusion lead to social conflicts that make it difficult for people to coexist.

With the help of stories, strategies and with a common vision, the winners [A World of Neighbours] collaborate across cultural and religious boundaries in an interfaith peace network.

To develop a solid coexistence, they learn from each other, fight misunderstandings and make good examples visible.

This year’s winners mobilize resilience for a sustainable defence of human dignity that contributes to a humane and socially sustainable Europe.”

The jury motivation for A World of Neighbours, winning the 2020 Swedish Diversity Index Award, in the category “Beliefs”.
