Involving a wide range of citizens from different social and professional backgrounds, underrepresented minority and migrant communities, the INDIMAE Network will foster a dialogue between public bodies, twinning committees and civil society organisations, acting to develop sustainable public-private partnerships to counter discrimination and promote cultural diversity.

INDIMAE PROJECT in a NUTSHELL
The project “INNOVATIVE DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT AND INCLUSION STRATEGIES FOR EUROPEAN TOWNS” – INDIMAE is funded by the Europe for Citizens Program of the European Commission, strand 2.2. "European Networks of Towns"
The INDIMAE project is coordinated by the Municipality of Simitli, Bulgaria in cooperation with 11 partners from 10 other countries - 8 EU members and 2 EU neighbouring countries. The project activities take place between in 2021 and 2023 and include a wide range of local and international events – both virtual, hybrid and residential ones.
The project is a participative and innovative one, anchored in the social, economic and political reality of the EU, seeking to establish a pan-European network of towns, working together on improving diversity management and minority rights protection in European towns, addressing the challenges of all European communities and most-specifically – the ones vulnerable to exclusion and marginalisation in the local societies across Europe.
