European international classrooms are, as a rule, informed by dominant Western cultural perspectives, which sideline diverse cultural and Indigenous knowledge. This session explores how inclusively designed intercultural learning spaces can foster a more equitable, respectful exchange of knowledge, crucial for universities committed to true inclusivity, with room for a multitude of voices.

Topics:

Intercultural competencies and languages Soft (transversal) skills
