The Akademia 'ETNOKULTURA' is an academic-foundation and is oriented towards culture and science. It was legally registered in 1994 in Odorheiu-Secuiesc/ Székelyudvarhely, Transylvania, Romania by Fodor Béla Adalbert, born in Transylvania, Magyarandrásfalva, (Hargita county) - currently swedesh citizen.
The foundation Ethnocultura was legally registerd in 1995 in Lund (Sweden) too, together with the 'Internationella Institutet för Tillämpad Total - Etno - Kultur, I.T'E.K/ International Institute for Applied Total Ethno Culture (ITEK) and the Akademia ITEK'2001'/ International Academy of Total*Etno*Culturology, TEKIA as the independent department from Romania of the Universal Tellus Culture Center, UTCC and The Tellusian World University Center Of Applied Total Universal Culture, T_W'U'T'C. The Foundation's priorities are the aid of the cultural-, educational and scientific progress of humanity. To achieve these goals, the foundation initiates and organizes several cultural, educational and scientific programms, with the aim of preserving the cultural traditions, bringing the ethnical cultures closer to each other, preventing and facilitating cultural blocades, aiding the multiethnic harmonization and integration, researching, reestablishing and disseminating the cultural values.
Furthermore, one of the initial goals of the Foundation is the establishment of institutional education on a new cultural and scientific base, in addition to collaborate on its fields of activity with the governmental and nongovernmental or private institutions, organisations, firms or persons. In the autumn of 1995 the first academical Departments (Transylvanian and Swedish) of the Matherinstitution I.T'E.K, coinciding in Transylvania with the establishment and succesful commence of the FolkMusic and FolkDance Academy from Székelyudvarhely were established. (The academy stated with more than 75 students, having its residence in the Educational House from Székelyudvarhely). The Universal T. Cultural Center, UTCC and the World University, (the 'ITEK University':I.T'E.K-, TEKIA & W.U.T.E.C.S.) and within this the transylvanian ETHNOCULTURE Academic Foundation by its formational and developmental process is closely related to the transylvanian VENYIGE Dancehouse movement and to the "VENYIGE" Folkmusic and Folkdance Group, both playing an important role in Transylvania. Furthermore the process of establishing and extending the above mentioned movement and group provided a period rich in activity and experience, with the cooperation on a cultural field of hundreds, maybe thousands of people with different ethnical origins from Transylvania and its regions, especially from the Székelyföld.
This process mainly contributed to the formation of the spiritual- ideal ground and of the actual content and formal criteria of the ITEK-University/Wold University... This was the period when the ideal and formal bases of the ITEK- Academy were established, which could develop under the sign of the VENYIGE Folkmusic and Folkdance Center in Székelyudvarhely (1977-1978), the Artistic Folkschool and later by the municipal Cultural House. The Akademia EtnoKultura/ITEK-Transylvania was established in Székelyudvarhely, the autumn of 1995 and was the first transylvanian academy using Hungarian language.
The Folkdance and Folkmusic Academy from Székelyudvarhely was established, as a part of I.T'E.K, with the participation of a great number of Venyige Band members as organizers, leaders, teachers or students.
Although the above mentioned FolkDance and FolkMusic department from Székelyudvarhely, of the ETHNOCULTURE ACADEMY after functioning successfully for 3 years, due to the lack of financial support, came to an end (1998). From 1999 it started to function again, in the renewed form of distance learning in the ITEK Academy & W.U.T.E.C.S (within T_W'U'T'C) and it maintained its continuity, where internationally anybody, who is interested can continue or initiate studying and develop himself - with worldunique and special possibilities. (International Music and Dance Academy:http://www.worlduniversitycenter.net/MDA.html). The Transylvanian ETHNOCULTURE Foundation & Academy is represented and administered by a local, independent board of trustees, which at the same time locally represents the I.T.E.K-, TEKIA & W.U.T.E.C.S. and participates in its international board. The Akademia ETHNOCUTURA is an independent part/department of the music and dancefolkloristic and culture centered Transylvanian establishment of the 90´s due to a global perspective, it was further developed to an international university center (with mainly distance learning), representing the Universal Cultural Sciences Academy and the ITEK University.
So the ETHNOCULTURE Foundation and Academy (ITEK Academy) is the first established part of the above mentioned I.T.E.K.-, TEKIA & W.U.T.E.C.S. academical center and University.
As a result of Fodor B. Adalbert's multiethnocultural research and activity, the gathered unique music and dancefolkloristic collection and archive represents one of the Foundation's early achievements. The founder donated a significant part of the collection and archive to the established 'Akademia ETHNOCULTURA', and I.T'E.K-, TEKIA & W.U.T.E.C.S, helped to fulfill the cultural, educational and scientific goals of general interest.
