\nPROJECT TITLE<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Furthering International Relations Capacities and Intercultural Engagement to Nurture Campus Diversity and to Support Internationalization at Home (FRIENDS)<\/p>\n

The FRIENDS project title stands for Furthering International Relations Capacities and Intercultural Engagement to Nurture Campus Diversity and to Support Internationalisation at Home. The FRIENDS project is built around the concept of Internationalisation at Home (IaH) that reframes the traditional perceptions of HE internationalisation in the five Partner Countries involved in the project, namely Bhutan, Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand. The notion of IaH is based on the assumption that for various reasons the largest part of universities\u2019 student body will always remain non-mobile and therefore deprived from access to global knowledge and skills.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Objectives<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. To outline PC HEIs\u2019 internationalization landscapes and to identify levels of integration of international and intercultural dimensions into PC HEIs\u2019 formal and informal curriculum: by April 2019.<\/li>\n
  2. To improve PC HEIs\u2019 capabilities for internationalization through staff trainings and by translating general awareness of the Internationalization at Home (IaH) concept into streamlined institutional policies and actions embedded in IaH Action Plans: by November 2019.<\/li>\n
  3. To build students\u2019 intercultural knowledge and sensitivity to cultural diversity through the introduction of Intercultural Passport virtual module into PC HEIs\u2019 elective formal curriculum: by 07.2020<\/li>\n
  4. To transform PC HEIs International Relations Offices (IROs) into vibrant multicultural focal points through the establishment of FRIENDS Teahouses and the induction of Home away from Home Programme for integrated international student care: by February 2021.<\/li>\n
  5. To promote virtual mobility and campus diversity across the 5 PCs as key tools for students\u2019 global competence development: by November 2021.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
