With the international meeting held in Istanbul in November 2022, the International Committee of Sustainable Thematic Film Festivals (CINETOUR) was established, with the support of UNESCO, Foundation for United Nations SDG and the Council of Europe. The CINETOUR committee, which aims to bring together thematic film festivals, directors, artists, media-culture-art representatives and many important personalities from the world who make the United Nations AGENDA 2030 their fundamental point, is the first and only committee in the world in this sense. Sylwia Ziemacka from Poland Weekly talks to MAURIZIO ARONICA, General Director in CineTour about the power of culture that can unite nations and people from around the globe.

“I believe our unique selling point is that we focus on what brings us together. Poland Weekly offers something you will not find anywhere else: a truly international and unifying perspective focused on content that builds cooperation and mutual understanding. This attitude doesn't make us naïve, but it allows us to focus on mutual understanding and a search for solutions. There are so many new challenges that we are all facing, such as energy transformation, climate change and supply chain disruption, to name but a few. By working together and sharing good practices, we can achieve so much more.”
