The World at Home 2025: music, art and flavors from around the world

Download | Playbill | Foldout

The Project The World at Home, sponsored by theASCS in collaboration with the Church of Mount Carmel, aims to create a channel of communication between the various realities in the area. In May and June 2025, at the Carmine Church in Milan., four migrant communities will make their reality known through cultural, folkloric and gastronomic events.

The goal of the project is to create and grow dialogue and space for encounter and sharing between migrant communities and the local community, with the belief that knowledge cancels out the fear of the other, especially when they are different from us in language, culture or religion.
