Summary of project results
The aim of the project, among others, was to provide to the participants new knowledge and competences, strenghten mutual relations, and increase the level of internationalization of the leader and partners. Students and Professors from Poland and Norway took part in the project.
Eleven higher education mobilities were implemented. Moreover, three important dissemination activities, including, what is particularly valuable - two organized in Norway were organized.
The impact of the project can be assessed as very good, especially since the mobility activities were supplemented with extra dissemination activities. In this way, it was possible to reach a much larger group of recipients, and the project activities were not limited only to mutual visits. Each visit was an opportunity to increase the level of knowledge of its participants, but also to get to know different cultures - in general.
Summary of bilateral results
The completed Project was another one implemented by the project partner in the Polish-Norwegian-Icelandic partnership.This higher mobility project certainly leads to strenghtening the vision and mutual understanding between the involved institutions. One of the effects of the project is, for example, learning about new music pieces by Polish and Norwegian composers and itroducing it to the canon of the repertoire of students from Poland and Norway. Thanks to the implementation of the task, the involved institutions also consolidated their image as entities focused on strengthening relations within the international network of universities and academies.
