The Cultural Diplomacy Day :
A confidential diplomatic gathering at the heart of cultural diplomacy
Created by the Consular Corps of the Province of Namur, The Cultural Diplomacy Day is an event dedicated to cultural diplomacy: a high-level gathering where heritage and music become levers for dialogue, cooperation, and international influence.

-
Enjoying a cultural experience in exceptional heritage sites.
-
Promoting local exchanges and facilitating introductions.
-
Being part of an international program: guest country of honor at the Dinant Jazz Festival.
