The Association for the Promotion of Cultural Diversity “Alia Mundi” is an informal organization that primarily aims to promote the idea of cultural diversity on a global scale, raising awareness about the importance of preserving cultural heritage worldwide. The work of the Association is based on these principles.
In its work, the Association “Alia Mundi” " draws attention to various aspects of world cultures through numerous cultural, artistic, literary, and scientific projects. The concept of cultural diversity is explored through different forms of cultural, artistic, and scientific work, highlighting both well-known and lesser-known cultural aspects from around the world.
The Association places special emphasis on publishing activities. It publishes books that deal with topics related to cultural diversity, exploring various phenomena characteristic of different world cultures, along with literary translations and fiction that aligns with the theme of cultural diversity. Most importantly, it publishes books that aim to preserve both the tangible and intangible heritage of diverse cultures from being forgotten. The goal of the Association “Alia Mundi” is to restore the original function of the book as a means of education. Through its publications, the Association strives to educate its readers, enriching them with significant experiences and global perspectives.
The Association “Alia Mundi” carries out its cultural activities through two media outlets it publishes. These include the magazine “Alia Mundi” for cultural diversity, which unifies all the goals of the Association's work through its clearly defined concept, and the web portal “Eastern Pearl,” which promotes Eastern cultures and highlights connections between different global cultures. By engaging with cultural media on an international level, the portal demonstrates the interconnectedness of cultures across the world. The Association also seeks to establish cultural ties across regions, achieving cultural and spiritual unity among peoples who share diverse cultural backgrounds.
The Association remains open to cooperation with both individuals and institutions, especially those working in the fields of culture and art. Through various projects, activities, and workshops, the Association carries out its primary mission, which is the promotion of global cultural diversity and tolerance, a principle upon which every developed, culturally, and spiritually conscious society should be based.
As the idea of cultural diversity gains increasing importance worldwide, the founding of the informal Association for the Promotion of Cultural Diversity “Alia Mundi” emerges as a logical step and an essential need for the development of global cultural awareness in today's interconnected world.
