Project SummaryCrosslife is a research-based study programme, designed by researchers and teachers from six universities (Tampere, London, Malta, Zürich, Copenhagen, Monash) in an EU-supported project developing joint studies in European HE. It builds on their long-term collaboration in the international research network Vocational Education and Culture. Crosslife studies are targeted to students, who intend to develop into academic experts of cross-cultural collaboration in education and work.
The aim of CROSSLIFE is to create cross-national learning environments (workshops) in which professionals and researchers can work together to learn more about the ways education and work are changing as a result of globalisation and movements of peoples and ideas, and also develop research-based expertise and skills in cross-cultural collaborations. Three workshops have been designed and implemented: London, October 2007; Tampere Finland, March 2008; and Malta, September 2008.
