Description
The Latvian Academy of Culture has had sub-programmes in Scandinavian languages and culture since its establishment in 1990 (in the academic year 2020/2021 there are specialization "Intercultural Relations between Latvia and Nordic Countries"), therefore cooperation with Scandinavian countries has always been one of the Academy''s key priorities. The internationalization of students and academic staff is also the first priority point in the Academy''s Internationalization Plan, which is a part of the Strategy. The mobility project will involve 4 students from the Latvian Academy of Culture and 3 Universities: the Latvian Academy of Culture, the University of Akureyri and the Volda University College. The aim of the project is to give an opportunity to four students (BA or MA level) of the Latvian Academy of Culture to spend a semester at the foreign university (University of Akureyri and Volda University College). If the project is approved, it is planned to start in September 2021 with the competion for students. The project time schedule is described in detail in the Annex 2. The partners participating in the project are long-standing partners. We have been regularly organizing student mobility within the Erasmus+ programme and the EEA activity “Scholarships” for more than 10 years and will continue to do so.
