Centre for encounter: Central and eastern europe
Thursday, Friday, Saturday
11.00–22.00 The Kirchentag picks up the tradition of the “Christian
Meeting Days” which last brought people from the
neighbouring countries together in Prague 2005 and
Bratislava 2008. In 2011, the “Meeting Days” will take
place within the Kirchentag in Dresden. All registered
guests and contributors are cordially invited to the
“Centre for encounter: Central and Eastern Europe”.
Thursday to Saturday, the Centre for Encouter will
debate several border-crossing topics with podium
discussions and different interactive formats. Moreover
you will find lots of cultural contributions.
