The Fundación Tres Culturas joins in the celebration of the International Day for Peace, declared by the United Nations General Assembly, by programming a film series that aims to promote dialogue, coexistence and harmony between people of different peoples, respect for their culture and the strengthening of the ideals of peace among all nations.

It also echoes the campaign 'Together for Peace: Respect, Security and Dignity for All', which continues the spirit of 'TOGETHER', a global initiative aimed at enabling people who have been forced to leave their homes in search of a better life to enjoy respect, security and dignity.

TOGETHER was launched during the Refugee and Migrant Summit on 19 September 2016 and brings together the entire UN system, all 193 Member States, the private sector, civil society, academia and the public to support diversity, non-discrimination and acceptance of refugees and migrants (http://www.un.org/es/events/peaceday/)

This cycle is organised in collaboration with the Amal Festival of Santiago de Compostela, promoted by the Araguaney Foundation.
