Mondialogo is a partnership initiated by DaimlerChrysler and UNESCO to promote understanding and exchange among young people. Mondialogo officially supports the UNESCO World Youth Festival and contributes to various festival activities. On 5 and 6 July, Mondialogo will support the “Theme Days” at schools in the Stuttgart region and the “Festival of Friends” on 7 July at the Killesberg open-air arena in Stuttgart.
Mondialogo’s website www.mondialogo.org which is accessible in five languages, provides an opportunity to engage in sustainable intercultural exchange by holding a live online forum and offering various other exciting dialogue features to the members of its worldwide community.
In addition, Mondialogo will open the doors of the Mercedes-Benz World for a free visit on 3 July 2006.

The Mondialogo Engineering Award, which encourages young engineering students to form international teams and to create project proposals that address the United Nations Millennium Development Goals – focusing especially on poverty reduction and sustainable development. And the Mondialogo Internet Portal, which serves as both an information medium and dialogue platform.
