Methods: The course program is rather practical than theoretical. It requires the full participation of all learners. The essential methods are put into execution through cooperative work, diverse activities, discussions, group work, role plays and practical training.

Their education institutions are aimed to develop strategies that improve the communication and intercultural competences of their learners, by ways of introducing well-structured, intercultural and cooperative teaching methods.Process for the project implementation: Prior to the development of the project, the coordinator invites the participants to take part in a preparatory meeting.
