Objective
The aim of this project is to help employees in business, educational or cultural organisations to better manage conflict situations arising from cultural misunderstanding. Intercultural communication is a particularly wide-ranging discipline. The project does not cover all its aspects but will, rather, focus on incidents experienced by employees and isolate common human characteristics after cultural differences have been excluded. The project will also clearly define new approaches and professional profiles. To achieve this, the partners intend to set up a training module and corresponding educational materials to respond to problems arising in this area.
This module will comprise a joint framework developed on the basis of each individual contribution. Situations documented by all the partners will act as illustrative supports for the corpus. They will take the form of reference files, exercises and actual case-studies which will enable the user to identify key problem characteristics rapidly and recognise theoretical similarities or relevant concepts.
Impact
Offering employees the possibility of acquiring new skills to improve communication and adjust to a multicultural Europe enables them to deal more effectively with reactions of rejection, aggression and xenophobia, thus helping them to improve work practices in a situation of social harmony.
