WHAT IS ILACI?

Launched in November 2009, the Indo-Latin American Cultural Initiative intends to create a cultural bridge by disseminating Latin American culture in India and Indian culture in Latin America through partnerships with like-minded individuals and organisations in Latin America, the Caribbean and Spain on one hand and India, on the other. It is interested in a wide variety of projects in the cultural sphere that  deepen an understanding of each other’s culture and enable individuals and organisations to come together through creative interactions and collaborations. It has already brought within its fold several artists and academics in India and Latin America who have been involved, over several years, in cultivating and sustaining a cultural dialogue between these two parts of the world.   Contact Us

The immediate objective of ILACI is to embark upon a series of cultural projects connecting India and Latin America. However, it is also keen to work with individuals and organisations in order to create autonomous institutions (or specific programmes within existing structures) dedicated to the serious study of each other’s culture. The long-term goal is to set up a network of “Casa de la Cultura India” in the major Latin American cities and a “House of Latin American Culture” in Goa, India
