Raising Global Citizens at Home
Having the competences to work amid diversity to handle cross-cultural situations is of growing importance. How can we make international experiences accessible to anyone, no matter where they are located? All this and more will be explained and explored on June 28, 2024.
How to Raise global Citizens at home?
Inclusiveness and cultural diversity are important themes in the worldwide arena. The Comenius senior project "Raising Global Citizens at Home" leverages virtual collaboration environments as open-source tools for cross-cultural exchange and internationalization at home. Tackling the challenges that can arise in virtual collaborations, this project has designed tools for orchestrating effective intercultural virtual collaborations for students (IVC).
This innovative project that contributes to SDGs 4, 10, 13, 17 grants students access to opportunities to learn how to navigate online and offline cross-cultural environments, enhancing their ability to successfully deal and work with diversity. These skills are essential in our society today.
Dissemination Event
On Friday, June 28, 2024, the project team will host an interactive session to launch the tools that have been developed in the past 2 years of the project.
Your feedback and insights are valuable to us as we continue to innovate and evolve. We hereby invite you to join us to engage in discussions, reflect on the materials, and provide us with your valuable feedback.
Warm regards,
Ingrid Van Rompay-Bartels, PhD, on behalf of the project team
