Compared to the past, the world has become globally open and young people need to leave their home, their usual comfort zone and explore different lands through studying, working and travelling. This creates new multicultural environments on places, which are traditionally mono cultural. However, Europe is facing major challenges in promoting social inclusion and cultural diversity as core values that unite the Member States. By exploring and sharing good practices and innovative methods and strategies of dealing with the challenges in multicultural environments for youth organisations and overcoming cultural shock, stereotyping, prejudices, discrimination and stigmatisation through intercultural communication and dialogue among young people, the project “Building Intercultural Competences (BIC): Sharing Good Practices” will raise awareness among young people about the importance of intercultural communication and mutual understanding.

The general objective of BIC is to help young people understand the importance of social inclusion and cultural diversity and build intercultural competences.

Building Intercultural Competences: Sharing Good Practices is supported by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
