One of the showcased projects is by the Centre of Visual Arts and Research (CVAR) in Cyprus. Through funding by the EEA and Norway Grants, CVAR is using storytelling, art, and collaborative projects to bridge the gap between the Greek and Turkish communities on the island.  

At our stand, you can explore CVAR’s project through an immersive virtual reality tour: walk around Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, and visit the CVAR museum.
