From historic palaces to peaceful island environments, participants will dive into the city’s rich heritage through thoughtfully curated visits to some of Dubrovnik’s most iconic locations.

The course also features practical workshops that encourage creativity and engagement with traditional arts and crafts, whether through hands-on techniques or digital tools. These workshops will cover a variety of topics, all designed to support problem-solving, critical thinking, and project-based learning.

Gain the skills and strategies needed to bring cultural heritage into your teaching

Through guided tours, lectures, discussions, and interactive workshops, participants will expand their collaborative abilities, deepen their knowledge, and embrace a more experiential approach to learning.

By the end of the course, participants will understand how to promote awareness of cultural heritage across different domains, enhance a sense of European identity and diversity, and encourage social inclusion—ultimately using this knowledge to build an open-minded and motivated classroom environment.
