Odesa oblast – is the region that absorbed the European spirit, created multi-ethnic and multicultural world. European traditions have deep historical roots and can influence the activity and consciousness of modern generations. During the years of Ukraine's independence the decentralization of international cultural cooperation, the emergence of a significant number of civic organizations gave an opportunity to reach a qualitatively new level of international relations. The Odesa oblast is a member of five European organizations and the Lower Danube Euroregion; takes part in dozens of European programs and UN Development Program. Three districts in Odesa oblast, one district of Odesa, 16 cities and towns have the friendship or cooperation agreements with 48 cities in 15 countries, and Odesa has 23 sister cities, 1 compact of intent and 16 partners from 30 countries. Of course, not all relationships are equally active. They are characterized by their rhythms, activity peaks and recessions. Public, private organizations and individuals are increasingly becoming carriers of ideas of cultural diplomacy, developing cultural, educational, environmental and tourism directions of cooperation with international organizations, twin cities. Combining the efforts of all participants in international cooperation allows solving the main goals of cultural diplomacy: raising awareness of Ukraine; forming a positive image of our country and its values, attracting foreign investments and political partners to solve urgent problems. At the same time, we are faced with the problems of the novelty of this area of activity, namely, the absence of a strategy in practical terms, both by the state and local self-government bodies. The practice of interregional and municipal partnership requires further research.
