SFERA took part in BIC “Building Intercultural Competences”

SFERA International participated in the final partner meeting as part of the project BIC “Building Intercultural Competences”, funded under the Erasmus+ Programme, which aims at raising awareness among young people about the importance of intercultural communication and mutual understanding.

The event took place offline in Varna. The main target of the whole meeting was to familiarize participating NGOs with results and activities that are related to the BIC values and aims.

During the partner meeting, we had two online sessions open to the public:

1) Intercultural Communication: 2nd Piloting Session

With the arrival of globalization and digitalization, we are encouraged to talk and interact with different nationalities and characters. We can connect via the Internet with a person on the other side of the globe within a short time, go on youth exchanges, and study abroad. This second piloting session was about developing skills needed to ease intercultural communication and challenge the stereotypes we were all brought up with. The event was open to anybody and was free of charge. To find out more, -> Click
