Community Action
Promoting intercultural dialogue through joint activities in Vienna
The services offered by CONCORDIA LenZ are not only to be understood as assistance for newly immigrated people, but also as a project that promotes intercultural dialogue between the host society and people with migration or refugee experience. Integration cannot take place unilaterally - parts of successful and sustainable integration are both the immigrated people and the host society. Encounters between these two groups play a very important role, as dialogue reduces unfounded fears, inhibitions and prejudices and promotes togetherness.
By "community action" we mean a place of encounter where cultural diversity can be experienced and socio-cultural experience can be gained and the need for social interaction is given space. The workshops are accompanied and co-organised by us, we support the workshop leader to make sure that the transfer to a positive experience is guaranteed.
So far we have run international cooking classes, music & photography workshops, pottery and painting classes as well as dance and yo-ya classes as part of Community Actions, to name a few.
