Welcome to the Urban X-Change II project - a unique endeavour combining citizen diplomacy, town twinning and adult education centres (Volkshochschulen). This project is a continuation of our commitment to intercultural exchange and the promotion of understanding and co-operation, this time between 4 cities in Germany, Ukraine and Poland.
Just as in the first project (2021-2023), new city partnerships will be established, who are working together on local solutions and contributions to overcoming existential global challenges.

As part of the Urban X-Change II project, we are developing a citizen diplomacy curriculum with materials and guidance to empower adult education centres to actively engage in citizen diplomacy, use town twinning for internationalisation and involve citizens and civil society in transnational projects. Town twinnings and adult education centres play a central role in this by creating spaces for encounters and providing the organisational basis for this exchange.
