Interdependence Day VI
Brussels, Belgium - September 9-12, 2008

The 6th annual Interdependence Day celebration and forum will be held in Brussels, Belgium, September 09-12th 2008. This year we are hosted by our friends Guy Gypens the new artistic director of the Kaaitheater, famed choreographer Anna Teresa de Keersmaeker, as well as by colleagues from the European Parliament and European Commission.

Brussels, considered the "Capital of Europe", accommodates both the European Parliament and NATO but is also the beleaguered capital of an increasingly divided Belgium and a fascinating bi-national culture (Francophone and Flemish). Brussels is a beautiful city, home to more than 80 museums, a wide array of architecture and arts, and is less than 2 hours away from both London (via the Eurostar bullet train) and Paris (by the Thalys express train).

As always, Interdependence Day is on September 12 and will be preceded by a memorial event on September 11 along with other seminars, concerts throughout the four days and will include a special interactive event in one of Brussels most famous public squares.

New to Interdependence Day is the Global Interdependence Youth Summit that will run simultaneously with the rest of our events and culminate in a one day Congress on the 13th of September.
