prevail, where scientific developments and technologies are used only for the
benefit of man, where problems and conflicts that arise are resolved by
gathering around a table where everyone is equal, but everyone carries a share
of their culture and traditions.

Vietnam, etc., and, of course, Ukraine! A wealth of cultures, worlds,
solidarity, social and multicultural exchange!
The population of the
ancient city of Nivelles is multicultural and multinational, representatives of
about 100 nationalities live here. For many residents or their ancestors, the
choice of this city to live was forced...It is extremely important to hold such
meetings and exchanges aimed at getting to know each other, providing the
necessary support, and preventing manifestations of ignorance and violence. As
the organizers say - The festival "Les mondes de Nivelles" aims first
of all to create an atmosphere conducive to meetings, discoveries and civic
life among the inhabitants of Nivelles, regardless of their origin, origin,
affiliation or culture! To learn more about the project, its spirit and goals,
