The project ran from 01-10- 2017 to 30-09-2018.

The need for internationalization of education in social work should respond to the different profiles of students enabling different international mobility options. The project was aimed to students who are unable to access traditional forms of mobility accomplish to establish an international context of joint lifelong learning of cross border/international/global SW issues for the students and train the teachers to use blended-learning methods, i.e. ICT-supported in combination with face-to-face interactive forms of teaching and learning.

The project created an opportunity for internationalization for the partners both through the preparatory work of the students via ICT but also in person through the intensive seminar.
