Εικόνες από το ακαδημαϊκό συνέδριο που πραγματοποιήθηκε στο Ζάππειο στο πλαίσιο του Φόρουμ Αρχαίων Πολιτισμών.
Στις συνεδρίες της 24ης Απριλίου εξετάσθηκε ο Πολιτισμός ως έξυπνο εργαλείο ήπιας διπλωματικής ισχύος και ως παράγοντας οικονομικής ανάπτυξης.
Έλληνες και ξένοι αρχαιολόγοι, καθηγητές και διευθυντές μουσείων από δέκα χώρες που αντιπροσωπεύουν αρχαίους πολιτισμούς μίλησαν για διαπολιτισμικές συνέργειες, πρότειναν δράσεις και παρουσίασαν επιτυχημένα παραδείγματα.
