“We hope to provide a more complex and balanced information on the issue of human rights and offer the possibility of a better understanding of the importance and of the connections between foreign political and social themes. Furthermore, we wish to contribute in this way to the public debate on the role that Romanian citizens and Romania can and should have in a globally interconnected world, the world which we live in.
We wish that our initiative will find a good, open-minded public and the festival increases the degree of awareness at a social level, favoring the positive effects in the public life.”
