15.10.2007 Torna a Bolzano dal 23 al 26 ottobre la World Social Agenda (WSA) che con "Libera Europa" chiude il ciclo quadriennale di riflessione sui continenti. "Contro il 'turismo dell'Olocausto' che ha visto un gruppo di giovani naziskin inneggiare al nazismo durante una visita al campo di concentramento di Dachau, la WSA propone invece un'Europa dei popoli, che prevenga nuovi conflitti, sappia liberarsi dal razzismo, dalla xenofobia e, soprattutto, che sappia fare memoria e riconciliarsi con la sua frontiera più fragile, l'Est europeo" - affermano gli organizzatori. L’appuntamento principale è la Conferenza Internazionale “Coabitare l’Europa delle minoranze”, con relatrici di origine rumena, polacca e bosniaca. In programma anche mostre fotografiche, proiezione di video e visite per le scuole.
