The DIVE-project will explore three overarching themes, which are democracy and citizenship in International Vocational education (IVE), sustainable development in IVE, and values in IVE. Within the concept of ‘Internationalisation at Home’, teacher students will collaborate in local and international colloquiums, in both physical and virtual spaces. The DIVE project has the primary goal of supporting VTE-teachers’ students in developing and strengthening intercultural competence, English speaking skills, digital competence, and global awareness within the three overarching themes.
