The Malta UNESCO Youth Association organised a Culture Fest on Sunday 19th October 2014 from 11am till 5pm at the Qawra LEAP Centre (formerly known as Qawra Access Centre)
The festival was organised in collaboration with the Qawra Access Centre, and co-funded by Aġenzija Żgħażagħ through the Be Active scheme. Since MUYA works in the field of developing culture, education, science and communication and spreading the ideas of UNESCO amongst youth and grown up population in Malta and internationally, the main aim of the festival is thus to promote active citizenship and cultural diversity through the participation of people coming from various cultures.
Representatives from the following cultures joined us on the 19th October with plenty of traditional food and cultural habits:
-Philippines
-Morocco
-Lithuania
-Russia
-Ukraine
-Colombia
-Malta
There were also crafts workshops for the children. All this was accompanied by dances like Salsa, Belly dancing, traditional dance and live music!
H.E. The President Maire-Louise Coleiro Preca also visited the Culture Fest.
It was a truly great day, look for yourself through our collection of photos
