Georgia’s top culture official spotlighted the power of cross-border cultural exchange during this week’s Ministerial Meeting of the Global Civilizations Dialogue, calling it a 'bridge for mutual understanding' in an increasingly interconnected world. 🌐
George Gabunia, Chairperson of the Culture Committee of Parliament of Georgia, told CGTN that fostering dialogue between nations through art, heritage, and shared traditions can 'break down barriers and spark innovation.' 💡
'Think of cultural exchange like a global playlist – every nation adds its unique rhythm, but together we create harmony,' Gabunia said, blending diplomacy with a Gen-Z-friendly metaphor. 🎶 His remarks come as youth-led movements worldwide push for greater cross-cultural collaboration in arts, tech, and social initiatives.
The event highlighted Georgia’s growing role as a cultural crossroads between Europe and Asia, with Gabunia noting that 'understanding begins when we listen to each other’s stories.' 📖
