- International/Cultural relations
The main objectives of Elan Interculturel are:
■ To create a better understanding of how diversity affects our life
■ To raise awareness of the resources inherent in diversity
■ To support organisations / groups in finding ways to use the cultural diversity within and around them for the benefit of the individuals and the group
■ To develop and transfer tools that make the process of adaptation to a new country a source of growth
■ Research: we explore the social, psychological aspects of cross-cultural transition
(Eg: How to handle stress in the adaptation? What is an intercultural identity? How does our embodiedness play in our experience of migration?)
■ We develop new tools, new methodologies through international collaboration:
In project ‘TIMNG’ we work with 6 organisations from Belgium, Denmark, France, Iceland and Spain to propose adult education activities that can enhance intercultural dialogue.
■ Trainings
Based on our research and development programs we offer trainings to people working or living in intercultural situations.
Eg: Facilitating intercultural communication, Preparing and accompanying international mobility, Making intercultural teamwork a source of advantage
