To celebrate music, dance and cultures of the world in Milton Keynes, The Parks Trust will host the annual World Picnic cultural event on 29 July, 2018. Although social scientists remind us of the fact that we should move beyond three Ds Integration (Dance, Dish and Dress), promoting interactions between all members of the community helps in overcoming fears about one another and creates bridges between our communities. The World Picnic offers a unique platform to celebrate unity in diversity. Music, dance, food are good icebreakers in intercultural communications.
