Erasmus in Schools is a project where International students studying abroad share their experiences and give lessons about their country´s culture and traditions to create cultural awareness among local students and fight stereotypes about Erasmus.
- Share cultures and break cultural stereotypes
- Foster Intercultural dialogue
- Promotion of mobility and exchange programmes
- Inform about ESN
- Support language learning
- Inspire international students to be more open, travel or even study abroad
The event was completely offline, Erasmus students came to the schools, presented their country and played various games connected with the topic.
This year we organized the event in two weeks - one 14.3. - 16.3. and 6.4. - 8.4.. In total, we involved 18 Erasmus students and 9 ESN volunteers within Brno United (VUT, MUNI and MENDELU university). We approached 4 high schools with an offer and then we held the Presentations in them.
We had 29 different classes (because of that, in total there was an audience from 350 to 500 students), in each of them we introduced the project, ESN and Erasmus+ program in general. Then one Erasmus student per class had a presentation about his/her country, shared experience with Czech high-school students and explained that it's not hard to go on Erasmus. In the end, there was also time for a discussion and little quiz or game about the countries.
