The International Cultural Festival (ICF) 2025, themed "Cultural Tapestry: Harmony for Peace and Equality" embodies the beauty of cultural differences, when embraced and celebrated, can become a powerful foundation for unity, fostering a peaceful and inclusive society. It envisions a world where people from various backgrounds regardless of culture, race, gender, or social status can live together in harmony, promoting mutual respect, and understanding.
Aligned with the UN SDGs Gender Equality (5), Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions (16), and Partnership for the Goals (17), the festival emphasizes the importance of cross-cultural dialogue and collaboration. By recognizing our shared humanity and promoting inclusive partnership, ICF 2025 aims to contribute the sustainable development and social justice. The event encourages the youth and broader community to explore the richness of global cultures as a meaning to build a more equitable and peaceful future.
