ABOUT US
DIMMALA is an association dedicated to the exposure of Swiss people to different cultures. The aim is to enhance exchange, interact and through this open up minds and broaden horizons. Different perspectives on life as well as similarities shall be highlighted. Any form of art, whether it be dancing, singing or more, acts as a means of exchange. This exchange is a two way street. Foreigners may also learn and grow through the experience. Taking up projects in less fortunate places of the world, DIMMALA wants to support local people. This may help to generate jobs, can offer a new sense of independence and is an opportunity to see something new. Through art DIMMALA wants to create a sense of unity between Swiss and foreigners, while at the same time reflect on different perspectives on life.
