Successful Completion of the «Interculturalism in Public Administration» Course

We are pleased to announce the successful completion of the «Interculturalism in Public Administration» course. This enriching educational experience was designed for students, civil society representatives, business professionals, public servants, and active young citizens eager to enhance their intercultural competencies. In total, 54 participants took this course in 2023 (two cohorts).

Throughout the course, participants delved into the core principles of interculturalism within the public administration system. They learned to critically analyze social issues, identify intercultural components, and develop effective solutions to a range of challenges. The course was an excellent opportunity for participants to network with like-minded individuals committed to societal improvement.

The developer of the course was Professor Tetyana Vasylieva, Director of the ARI BiEM at Sumy State University, and now a Professor at the Department of Financial Technologies and Entrepreneurship. Professor Vasylieva brought her extensive academic experience and project management skills to the program, enriching the learning environment with her insights. Additionally, the course featured more than 20 visiting lecturers from various countries, each bringing a unique international perspective to the discussions on interculturalism.

The successful execution of this course marks a significant milestone in our efforts to incorporate intercultural understanding into public administration. We are proud of all participants and grateful to the lecturers who contributed to this transformative educational experience.
