In an increasingly interconnected world, cultural heritage can become much more than something to be preserved: it can become a space for encounter among people, cultures and communities.\nHeritage for Building Peace promotes a vision in which cultural heritage fosters dialogue, strengthens mutual understanding and contributes to building relationships based on respect, cooperation and peaceful coexistence.\nThe Appeal invites us to recognise cultural diversity as a resource for the future and to promote initiatives that can generate benefits for communities at both local and global levels.<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
