Our planet has become a village and dialogue is an important foundation to prevent problems - Majali #forum2010
Serene presenting recommendations #Annalindh #forum2010
Mobility a big issue in cultureand ALF should help. Esp in regards to Palestine
Lobbying to facilitate VISA issues is one of the recommendations 4 mobility #Annalindh #forum2010
Ibn batoota model & not mark twain in mobility! Living & not tourism! #forum2010 #Annalindh
Translation should be supported by ALF
More funding needed for new media tools! #forum2010 #Annalindh
in closing session of Anna Lindh Forum. Again many nice words. Makes me impatient... Need to go home and work on real things now! #forum2010
Dialogue cannot be forced it should come naturally & organically #forum2010 #Annalindh
First rapporteur came with many excellent concrete suggestions. Very encouraging. #forum2010
personal experiences are what is important in education.
Dialogue cannot/must not be forced. Participants in inter-cultural dialogue sometimes risk being ostracized by their societies. #forum2010
#forum2010 has me convinced on the importance of music in intercultural dialogue, but not yet on art!

Diversity is the essence of cities. Cities are about culture & cultures are about openness. @lisang
Recommendation: train media professionals on diversity and migrant culture issues. Promote migrants as added values to urban environments. @lisang
in final plenary - great recommendations but need for action on the ground #forum2010
Anna Lindh rec: training female women religious leaders. Interesting #forum2010
heard the recommendations from our workshop #forum2010 #AnnaLindh All edges and doubts are gone. Very superficial statements remain. Useful?
Ecological sustainability is our greatest challenge and will be a new priority for ALF. Great news! #forum2010
thanks and goodbye to all #forum2010 tweeps, thanks to you i am able to catch up on the planery i'm missing in-between flights
the final stages #forum2010
emphasis on the need for action, long term planning and mobility (freedom of movement) #forum2010
The most important issue we have to deal with is freedom of movement" #Annalindh #forum2010
'Recognition of the need to work long term rather than lots of short projects.' Definitely agree with that! #forum2010
Anna Lindh forum is like Frankenstein: Unique. Haha. #forum2010

Hint that not all is right. Some countries have right of veto & resources but give only 5000€ a year.So don't expect too much! #forum2010
