The people who took part in the exhibitions of the ExpoTranskultur Association and the activities all had something to say about immigration and integration issues in Switzerland. They belong to different cultural groups, speak several languages, and have different professional backgrounds. All of this has helped us create the solid ground on which we base our main concept: we are all human, neighbors, and we want to interact!
