Steps to submit your proposal:

—> Read the Bases for the call here

—> Send your project proposal by clicking below in “Send My Proposal” and attach a document (maximum 1200 words) providing a concrete proposal that will serve as a starting point from which to design the workshop, in dialogue with the team of mentors and the other African initiatives that have been selected. This document must include the following information:

What practices and experiences facilitate hospitality and welcome in your city?

In what way, from the initiative to which you belong, are you trying to create spaces for “neighbourhood” meetings and relationships between people of different origins?

What local learning and experiences, in your city, do you think might be applicable and could contribute to making Madrid a more hospitable city?

If you had to propose an action and/or object to materialize any of these concepts (hospitality, the idea of “us”, the common identity of “neighbours”…) Which one or ones would you choose? If you need to incorporate an image, attach it to the attached file box.
