The intersection of two ecosystems rooted in the human rights paradigm: the right to participate in cultural life and the right to build peace, creates a meeting space with multiple potentials to explore, aiming to construct a model of society and national and international relations based on cooperation and just, sustainable human development. What is the value of culture as a mediator in conflict resolution? Can cultural and artistic projects reinterpret the past and build a future of peace? How can creative processes become emancipatory and reparative practices? Can cultural ecosystems generate support structures in the face of repression or serve as a platform for voicing grievances?
