Baku:Azerbaijan has played a significant role in facilitating dialogue between East and West through the 'Baku Process,' among other initiatives. The country’s historical role in fostering ties and its traditions of multiculturalism have been pivotal in promoting intercultural understanding and cooperation on international platforms.

According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, the 'Baku Process,' initiated by President Ilham Aliyev, along with the World Forums on Intercultural Dialogue and the Global Baku Forums organized by the Nizami Ganjavi International Center, are key platforms for international dialogue. The 7th World Forum on Intercultural Dialogue, held in Baku from October 27-29, served as an important venue for expanding cooperation and discussing approaches to global challenges.

In an interview, Rza Aliyev, Secretary-General of the Nizami Ganjavi International Center, highlighted Azerbaijan's role as a cultural bridge between Europe and Asia.
