Are you ready for your intercultural journey abroad?
As students from diverse backgrounds start their journey to study abroad, administrative procedures are a must. However, a crucial question remains: Are these students adequately prepared for an extended stay in another culture?
This workshop is tailored to ready all outgoing students for their intercultural journey to an ENHANCE university or another university outside of ENHANCE network.
Please note that this seminar doesn't handle administrative and logistical topics of your stay! It specifically focuses on intercultural sensitivity. Upon completion, participants can receive an ENHANCE certificate of participation if desired.

Not only for Erasmus+ mobilities!

"This seminar made me reflect on things I hadn’t considered before—like cultural misconceptions, my own biases, and how identity shapes interactions. It was interactive and eye-opening, and gave me the tools to navigate cultural differences with more confidence during my study abroad."
"I want to thank you for the very enriching and interesting seminar. It has encouraged me even more to go abroad and gain new experiences without feeling nervous about the cultural shock."
