In July 2020 the partners from Cross Culture International Foundation (CCIF Malta) took the opportunity to organise an event for limited number of participants and hosted the first local debate in the framework of the project.
The event was mainly focused on how important intercultural competences nowadays are, as well as how to gain intercultural experience in a safe way and prevent becoming a victim of human trafficking.
Due to the limitations for organising meetings in person, the partners have organised a second local online debate in September in order to reach the desired number of participants.
We are happy to announce the initiation of our project – Building Intercultural Competences: Sharing Good Practices, funded under Erasmus+ Programme. Varna University of Management, together with 5 youth organisations from Greece, Italy, Malta, North Macedonia and Portugal will explore and share good practices, 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 will raise awareness about the importance of intercultural communication and mutual understanding. The project started on 1 September 2019. During the last week, the partners were brought together for the kick-off meeting in Bitola, North Macedonia.
