REPORT: Open and Developing Catalogue of Intercultural Practices
The Open and Developing Catalogue of Intercultural Practices is the result of months of work by the React! network. We believe it can be helpful in working with individuals with migration and/or refugee experience. We call the catalogue ‘developing’ and ‘open’ because it is a dynamically evolving collection of practices that we will adapt and update in response to changing needs and cultural contexts. ‘Developing’ means that the document is constantly updated with new experiences and solutions.
‘Open’ emphasises that it is accessible to all interested parties and encourages the co-creation and sharing of knowledge and experiences (including those perceived as failures) in the spirit of openness and collaboration. Our catalogue is an invitation to discover how diversity can enrich the cultural environment, while serving as an encouragement for positive engagement and intercultural cooperation.
