We are calling for help as rent price is dramatically high in Czech Republic even for NGOs. This is why we are asking the international community for support otherwise we have lack of opportunities for development. Our services should be affordable and available to the people.
Multicultural Center Brusinka is an educational, leisure, non-profit and non-governmental organization, working in Brno since 2018. We provide activities of almost all formats to the whole community in the city. Our center acts as a mediator between foreigners and the locals in the integration process. We are the only Multicultural Center in our city. The Brno metropolitan area has almost 700,000 inhabitants.
As a Multicultural Center we are a special space in Brno, which serves as a mean for the dissemination of different educational, artistic, cultural expressions to unite people from different backgrounds and ages. Our Center allows inter-generational exchanges and community-building for the inhabitants of our city to have a physical space to openly express themselves and celebrate their diversity in unison. For this matter, the Center’s programs and activities are developed to increase the awareness, understanding, support and intersectionality of the various identities in the local community. We are also helping refugees, supporting LGBT+, people with disabilities.
Multicultural diversity helps dispel negative stereotypes and also recognize and respect different groups so that as we interact with others we can build bridges to trust, respect, and understanding across cultures.
