Netd@ys Europe

The most important principle of Netd@ys is the voluntary participation of those working directly in the field. A vast number of projects, at local, regional or national level are organised and specific activities on-line and off-line are undertaken under the themes which are proposed each year. These include multimedia performances, online forums and games, workshops, competitions, etc.

Netd@ys provides all participating individuals and organisation with an open platform for participants to showcase their projects and with an opportunity for them exchange ideas and experiences with people all over the world. In 2003, Netd@ys Europe is interested in the theme of "Dialogue" involving different cultures.
