1. Beyond Borders is an Italian Cultural Association since July 2014

2. Where we are: Corato & Bari, Apulia Talking about Apulia, our region, migration is a growing phenomenon. In particular in the area around Bari, where we live, represents a place of arrival of immigrants for its position in the Mediterranean Sea. The province of Bari is a melting pot of several cultures and religions and everyday is becoming more multicultural. Sometimes the general favourable welcome is soon replaced by unconcern or even distrust. With Beyond Borders we want to share the right approach towards intercultural learning with various activities!

3. Why “Beyond Borders”? The idea of Beyond Borders came from young minds, who feel themseves more than just Italian citizens and trust in the power of Interculturality to defeat prejudices and discover and learn more about cultures.
