Interculturalism promotes interaction, collaboration and exchange between people of different cultures, ethnicities or religions to develop understanding, respect and equality-of-outcome for all.
We believe that diversity can enrich society and it must be planned for through the development of intercultural policies and practices.
NYCI is committed to supporting youth organisations to achieve more equal, intercultural and inclusive communities.
