About Us                           

The Republic of Cyprus, a member state of the European Union as of May 2004, early on endorsed the development of the Anna Lindh Foundation for Dialogue between Cultures. The Republic acknowledges the unique complexities of intercultural dialogue but in particular of building an area of peace and stability through consolidating cooperation in many areas such as human rights, democracy, development, knowledge, and social diversity for youth.

Currently the Cyprus national network is made up of twenty nine (29) civil society organisations/institutions in diverse fields but all promoting, expressing and underlining issues that ALF stands for. The Cyprus Center for European and International Affairs was invited to take over the coordination of the network of Cypriot organisations/institutions that are active in intercultural dialogue at the local level but above all have working knowledge of cross-Mediterranean cooperation. Its remit includes expanding the network, creating visibility for the ALF, information management, and above all provision of support aiming at strengthening those working or intending to work cross-Mediterranean within the realms of the ALF.
