Mission and Objectives

Special attention is on the overcoming of borders, which still exists in the culture between Turkey and other countries. Our principal objectives are the promotion of exchange and cooperation in order to carry out an intercultural understanding to strengthen as well as above all the cultural dialogue between Turkey and the other countries. Under these circumstances we are supporting initiatives of our members that express the cultural diversity within societies. The basic research and work of the association focuses on collaboration in old and new media, technology, and theory with an emphasis on social contexts. The association emphasis professionals working in different creative disciplines (e.g. media-creatives, satirists, visual artists, writers and film-makers); they are brought together in order to develop and open on an international level sources for the realisation of cultural works, projects and activities. The association is an international network with a participatory and flexible structure that combines advanced creative production, research, events, and documentation.

Main Projects / Activities

InEnArt and its modul Sense of Time - InEnArt is an interactive platform. Visitors can explore content, leave comments and can apply to get authors themselves. InEnArt is a cooperation of various civil society initiatives, that are active in the cultural field, as well as cultural institutions and universities, who understand the unregulated exchange of information as a global, basic need. Together they are launching a social network with the aim to promote cultural diversity and to contribute to a better understanding between cultures. The partners of InEnArt understand social networks and social software as a resource for creativity and information exchange in the cultural field. The participation of individuals together will create new unexpected relationships and will contribute to a better understanding of national, ethnic and religious boundaries.
