Workshop 2019
How to collaborate in culturally and linguistically diverse projects
This half-day free workshop at the University of Copenhagen is for individuals and teams who work across languages and cultures in companies big and small, NGOs, art and culture activities, and the public sector.
The workshop is an interactive and hands-on opportunity to explore collaboration in linguistically and culturally diverse projects. It specifically focuses on projects where team members have not worked together before.
The workshop addresses questions such as:
- How can projects between new team members start off on the right foot?
- What are the main challenges in linguistically and culturally diverse projects?
- What communicative tools do team members need to navigate such projects with success?
You will walk away from the workshop with ideas and concrete suggestions for how to apply the learnings in your own work context.
The workshop ends with a complimentary networking lunch (12.00-13.00).
