Azerbaijan: World needs dialogue to develop multicultural society

From Azerbaijan:

Speaking at the event Executive Director of the Baku International Multiculturalism Center, Azad Mammadov said choosing Baku as a venue for establishing an International Multiculturalism Center is natural.

“Azerbaijan is a country with centuries-old traditions of multiculturalism and tolerance,” he said. “This is why the establishment of the International Multiculturalism Center in Baku was expected.”

He noted multiculturalism is one of the directions of the state policy of Azerbaijan and the country pays special attention to it.

Mammadov also noted the Heydar Aliyev Foundation greatly supports the activity of the Baku International Multiculturalism Center, as the fund implements projects aimed at promoting intercultural dialogue.

“Azerbaijan is open and ready for cooperating in the field of an intercultural dialogue with other countries,” he said.
