International exchange en a reciprocal approach to intergenerational, intercultural and international dialogue is in our DNA. Our friends of cultuurenco (www.cultuurenco.nl) a longtime member of your network, advised us to seek membership as well. Especially since my last visit to the Palestinian territories, Palestine, returning with ful vigor and wanting to make a contribution there to the seniors that have been in the refugees camps for so long, and the children who need a break from the daily trauma inflicting situation.
The Anna Lindh Palestinian network is looking for partners and this seems a good opportunity to continue our research for making a difference in this troubled area.
Kind regards,
