Ces cafés permettent à des individus de divers horizons et réalités de se rencontrer, dans un cadre où tous les gens et toutes les perspectives sont les bienvenus.
The University of the Streets Café creates gathering places for community members to pursue lifelong learning and engagement in the form of collective discussions. They are an opportunity for people of diverse backgrounds and realities to meet, where all people and perspectives are welcome.
