WebConference: New Media and Intercultural Dialogue

We live in an incredibly diverse world, one in which countless
cultures, religions and backgrounds all co-exist. For this reason, it
is crucial to promote the concept of dialogue between people- to
address misconceptions or prejudices, to prevent conflicts and, most
importantly, to foster a culture of peace and understanding.

As a young person, do you feel you have a role in promoting cross
cultural dialogue?
What are some of the steps you have taken to promote cultural
tolerance and what results have you achieved?
Do you think that the media can be biased in its portrayal of "Others"?
Do you know how to harness the potential of new media (social
networks, blogs, podcasts, videos, etc.) to promote dialogue between
cultures and make your voice heard?

Share your views with us on this important topic during our web
conference called "New Media and Intercultural Dialogue"! Join our
special guests and other TIG members worldwide to share your
perspective and thoughts on intercultural dialgoue. It will also be a
chance for you to learn how to use new media to promote acceptance
from other active youth around the world.

The Live Chat is part of the "Youth For Change" project implemented by
TakingITGlobal in partnership with Bibliotheca Alexandrina.

Date & Time: Saturday November 29th, 2008 from 4.00 pm to 6.00 pm GMT
