Multicultural metamorphosis: how culture and heritage shape social transformations Multicultural metamorphosis: how culture and heritage shape social transformations ================================================================================== 27 agosto 2021 ![](/storage/files/civis-stc-metamorphosis-2.png)We live in an age of constant adaptation and transformation, where diversity and mobility coexist with the continued importance of attachment to a place or a culture. This summer, participants in the course [Metamorphosis in a changing world](https://civis.eu/en/civis-courses/metamorphosis-in-a-changing-world-the-role-of-culture-and-heritage-in-society-s-transformation) explored these issues through the lens of lusophony. What can the multicultural Portuguese speaking world tell us about the role of a shared language in social transformation? The course was hosted in Aix-en-Provence by Aix-Marseille Université, and co-organised with the Université libre de Bruxelles and the Università Sapienza di Roma. 24 students from 8 CIVIS member universities participated, with 10 nationalities represented. Alongside a series of lectures, students worked on a creative project developing a Virtual Museum of Multiculturalism.
