Throughout the month of September, the Fundación Tres Culturas joins one of Seville's cultural events: the celebration of the Flamenco Biennial. To this end, it has programmed a range of activities ranging from concerts to discussion forums within a new programme that the foundation is launching in its autumn season, entitled Agora Three Cultures. With this, the foundation is committed to the generation of new approaches from which to discover the cultural mosaic with which to observe flamenco, named Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2010, from the multifaceted reality that is the Mediterranean.
