Fostering intercultural dialogue and intercultural awareness.
International dinner (Christmas edition)*: Just like in the beginning of the semester we gathered to get a taste of different cultures, but this time everyone brought a dish or dessert of their country that is typical for Christmas or -if they’re not used to celebrating Christmas- some other festive (winter) dish.
We asked the participants to bring their own plate, cutlery and mug to make this event as environment friendly as possible.
Christmas movie: We continued our cosy celebration with a Christmas classic.
Gift swap: We ended the evening with a moment around our (tiny) Christmas tree to surprise and be surprised with a small wrapped gift from a fellow student.
The students really liked the activity and they got to know something knew about the other cultures.
