The programme will consist of five days of physical mobility, combining educational sessions, interactive workshops and collaborative work dynamics. The methodology will be eminently participatory, student-centred and practice-oriented, allowing the students to take a leading role in defining these models of representation and support.
One of the main outcomes of the programme will be the collaborative development of practical guides and operational tools, co-created by the participants themselves, which can be used by Ulysseus partner universities to implement or improve their ambassador and buddy programmes to integrate these groups in equality respecting their differences within Ulysseus and its welcome services while preserving the particularities of each institution.
The BIP introduces relevant elements of pedagogical innovation:
1. Project-Based Learning
Students will work on the actual creation of applicable guides, protocols and tools, connecting learning with tangible and useful results for the institution.
2. Co-creation and horizontal and co-responsible learning
Knowledge will not only be transmitted by experts but will also be generated through collaborative intercultural dynamics. This encourages peer learning and critical thinking.
3. Experiential and intercultural approach
Simulations, role-playing, practical case studies, participatory dynamics, and analysis of real situations related to mobility, integration, and intercultural communication will be incorporated.
