Intercultural Training

Today's subject was "intercultural training" and it started with greeting rituals from all over the world. We had to greet the other group members by shaking the left hand or giving someone a peck on the cheek. For me it was a good introduction to the following things because so we knew what this workshop was about. The learning goals were increasing cultural awareness, recognition of different cultural values and developing intercultural competence and we tried to reach these aims by the help of some games, group work, movies and role plays. In my opinion these methods were really good in order to get information about different cultures and values which are important in countries abroad.
 What I have learned today is trying to avoid any stereotypes and judging about others.
