Goal of the Activity

The goal of the activity, comprising a conference with a panel discussion organised by ESN Poland, was to foster dialogue and collaboration among stakeholders within the higher education sector in Poland. It aims to elevate the importance of internationalisation, intercultural competence, and diversity in academic settings, recognising the significance of student voices in shaping these discussions. By providing a platform for engagement, the activity seeks to deepen awareness and understanding of key issues related to global engagement and to empower participants to initiate positive change within their academic communities. Ultimately, the goal is to contribute to the creation of inclusive, tolerant, and globally-minded university environments that celebrate diversity and promote intercultural understanding.

Description

The event, organised by ESN Poland, intertwines a conference and a panel discussion, focusing on the internationalisation of higher education in Poland. It serves as a forum for diverse stakeholders, including students, academic staff, administrators, and policymakers, to engage in dialogue and exchange perspectives on pertinent topics such as intercultural competence and diversity within academic environments. Through thought-provoking discussions and collaborative initiatives, the event aims to highlight the importance of embracing global perspectives and fostering inclusive practices in higher education institutions. Attendees gain valuable insights and are empowered to champion intercultural understanding and positive change within their academic communities. By fostering partnerships and networks among universities and student organisations, the event catalyses collective efforts towards advancing internationalisation goals. Ultimately, the event strives to cultivate inclusive, tolerant, and globally-minded university environments that celebrate diversity and empower students to thrive in an interconnected world.
