Kulturell brobygger organisasjon
CAN – The Cultural Bridge building organization
Let’s build cultural bridges together
Our organization board is based on of talented professionals with a wide range of skills and experience. We love what we do, and we do it with big passion! Sometimes we travel to find the similarities between our nations, sometimes we host a gala event, sometimes we have traveling exhibitions around the country and sometimes we even write an article or two which gets published, and sometimes we do awareness raising campaigning.
Most importantly each of our projects holds a special place in our hearts, and we hope that you all enjoy what we do. We are a nonprofitable organization, and appreciate the support of our partners who believes in our unique projects.

Discover the Land of Our origin
Opplev Aserbajdsjan gjennom vårt unike brobygger prosjekt. I 2019 reiste vi til Aserbajdsjan for å følge Thor Heyerdahl sine fotspor. Og våre funn begeistret oss!
Åpenhet
Fremmedfrykt bekjempes med fokus på det vi har til felles
«Vi reiste til Aserbajdsjan med åpenhet og ydmykhet. Da oppdaget vi også mange ting som lignet det vi kjenner fra Norge. Slik ble en bro bygget.»
Brobygging
En herlig blanding
«Prosjektets mål er å inspirere andre mennesker med tilhørighet i to kulturer til å finne likheter mellom disse og hedre dem.»
Vennskap
Bekjemp Fremmedfrykt
«Vi håper at flere vil finne inspirasjon fra vårt prosjekt og sørge for å bidra til å bekjempe den økende fremmedfrykten gjennom kulturell brobygging.»
Building Cultural Bridges
As a tribute to mark the 100th year of the establishment of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic, the Cultural Bridge Building organization CAN was established on April 2018 in Oslo, Norway.
