The team has many international experiences but they are quite new in the implementation of Erasmus+ program, and therefore needs to see and to exchange experiences for the successful internationalization of the center. And finally we have the need of sharing experiences of disadvantaged students coming from depressed areas. Also we need to improve how to work with new religions and cultures.The 35 mobilities of students will:a) Improve their communication skills.b) Improve their job skills and perspectives.c) Improve their language skills.d) Lose their fear to move, to live abroad and gain confidence in themselves.e) Give them more opportunities for the future and improve their employment possibilities.f) Reduce the failure and dropout, giving future expectations to the students.g) Improve the human dimension of the students, giving them tools to open their minds beyond their environment.h) Reduce xenophobic actions and misunderstanding towards immigrant communities or minorities.12 teachers mobilities with the following aims: a) Contact and planning activities conducted for the students.
