Intercultural competences are the ability to function effectively in different cultures, to think and act properly, and to communicate and work with people from different cultural backgrounds. In these classes, the student will understand the importance of intercultural competences for both children and adults. They will learn how to support children in acquiring such competences in the process of education in kindergarten and primary school. They will learn how to independently shape their own intercultural competences in order to be able to freely communicate with representatives of other cultures.
