Debate leadership and interviews 3 conferences on New Cultural Citizenship

The InterartLab Foundation in Arnhem in Arnhem asked Radi Suudi of Jaffar Consultancy to conduct extensive interviews with a number of mayors of large cities as part of its New Cultural Citizenship project. The interviews focused on the question of how mayors in the changing urban societies of the 21^e century, can shape new forms of citizenship that, across all the differences between people, can search for that which unites them. Summaries of three of these interviews can be found here. Radi Suudi in conversation with Rob van Gijzel, then mayor of Eindhoven, Radi Suudi in conversation with Gerd Leers, then mayor of Maastricht and Radi Suudi in conversation with Jacques Wallage, then mayor of Groningen.

InterArtLab Lab organized three conferences of two days each in Rotterdam, The Hague and Amsterdam. At these conferences, scientists and artists together gave almost a hundred (!) lectures on New Cultural Citizenship. These conferences were led by Radi Suudi as chairman and interviewer.
