Locarno Open Doors: three-year focus on Latin America and the Caribbean comes to an end
In a world where space for dialogue is ever diminishing, cultural platforms are essential, helping to strengthen social cohesion and build bridges. Art and culture are cornerstones of freedom of expression, peace and sustainable development. Films in particular show the diversity of realities and amplify the voices of minorities. Through the Open Doors initiative, the SDC supports filmmakers from the Global South and East at the Locarno Film Festival.
Culture is a human right and at the same time an excellent indicator of democracy and the rule of law – and a key ingredient of sustainable development.
