New Strategic Partnership: Casa Amèrica Catalunya and IBEI Sign Agreement to Strengthen EU–LAC cultural, social and policy dialogue
On 29 May 2025, the Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI) and Casa Amèrica Catalunya formalised a significant partnership to strengthen cultural and policy ties between Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean (LAC).
Founded in 1911, Casa Amèrica Catalunya is a cultural institution dedicated to fostering connections between LAC and Catalonia. With a belief that culture is a powerful tool for mutual understanding, it hosts exhibitions, seminars, debates, literary and musical events, and film cycles. It serves as a platform for cultural cooperation and acts as a bridge for collaborative initiatives between Catalonia, Europe and LAC.
The signing ceremony, held at IBEI marks the launch of a three-year collaboration focused on enabling transatlantic dialogue, advancing cultural and social exchange, and engaging the public in critical conversations between Europe and LAC.
