Intercultural Competences through Citizen Science Challenge
Our Challenge
The ICCS Challenge is an exciting opportunity for you to develop intercultural skills while contributing to real-world Citizen Science projects. Delivered in a blended format, the challenge combines individual and group work, incorporating both online and physical learning experiences with a mobility week at UT in Enschede, the Netherlands. You engage in a hands-on, challenge-based learning process that integrates intercultural competence with scientific outreach and citizen engagement.
