Connecting Cultures



The Get Finternational course aims to bring Finnish and international students together and improve their cultural awareness. Cultural awareness means that one has an ability to understand people from different cultures, and it makes the communication between people from different cultural backgrounds easier.

In the globalized world of today, the contacts between representatives of different cultures are increasing because of tourism, business, science, education, immigration and entertainment. Therefore the improvement of cross-cultural skills is more crucial than ever before.
