My Name is Maria Bermúdez and I just finished my studies as a communication designer. Since many years I'm into social projects and love to work with communities of different cultures and background. With this project I try to connect people to reduce prejudices and break borders.

Intercultural Bridges
„Intercultural Bridges“ creates cultural understanding through a collectively cooking experience.
As my bachelor project I chose to design experiences for intercultural communication through cooking. I believe that cooking can connect people overall and can be seen as a bridge that can be built even when people have different opinions on religion, politics or other topics.
The Idea of this project is to create a platform that gives each and everyone the opportunity to learn from other cultures and grow. Create your own cooking event or join the next one close by. Learn how to prepare the ghanaian national food Fufu or teach your neighbours your own favourite recipe.
