At the Global Civilizations Dialogue Ministerial Meeting in Beijing, Lloyd Nyikadzino, an Executive Council Member of the International Theatre Institute (ITI), made a passionate case for cultural unity through the arts. 🌐✨
🎭 Theatre as a Bridge Between Cultures
Nyikadzino called theatre "one of the most important critical tools" to foster understanding between nations and individuals. "No culture is at the periphery, and no culture is superior," he told CGTN, urging societies to embrace diversity while seeking common ground. His message? Collaboration over competition. 🤝
🌍 Finding Common Ground
"Every culture is unique—we can’t be the same," Nyikadzino said. "But the issue is to find a place where we can exchange and interact." He highlighted theatre’s unique ability to spark dialogue, blending storytelling with social impact—a vibe Gen Z can totally get behind. 🗣️💡
As global tensions simmer, Nyikadzino’s vision offers a refreshing roadmap: art as diplomacy. Could creativity be the key to a more connected world? 🗺️✨
