From February 28th to March 1st, ISCOM hosted its much-anticipated International Days, a vibrant celebration of diversity and academic brilliance. With an array of engaging activities tailored for the international student community, participants embarked on a journey to explore the intricacies of cross-cultural communication and connect with individuals from around the globe.
23 professors, 12 different countries
One of the highlights of the event was the presence of 23 professors, representing 12 different countries. These esteemed educators brought a wealth of knowledge and perspectives, enriching the learning experience for all attendees. Through a series of conferences and workshops, participants gained valuable insights into various cultural nuances, fostering a deeper understanding of global communication.
Workshops
The workshops explored various different themes such as "Changing behavior through communications without changing minds!", "Designing a service based on the User Journey", "Advertising and Strategic Brand Management", "How to use Large Language Models to improve your English", "Building self-confidence through creative time management", and "Visual rhetoric: how to persuade with visuals".
These workshops were attended by educators from esteemed institutions such as Bournemouth University (UK), Wroclaw University of Economics and Business (Poland), Vilnius University (Lithuania), KEA Copenhagen School of Design and Technology (Denmark), and THE HAGUE University of Applied Sciences (Netherlands), showcasing the diversity of perspectives and experiences.
This collaboration was made possible in part thanks to the Erasmus program, whose funding contributed to this opportunity to bring together teachers in Paris. Additionally, the ISCOM campus in Bordeaux was able to participate remotely, further enhancing the international exchange of knowledge and ideas.
Activities
The festivities continued with a captivating visit to Lonsdale, a renowned agency, on Friday, March 1st. Participants had the unique opportunity to tour the agency's facilities and engage with its talented team. This immersive experience provided invaluable insights into the workings of a global company, offering a firsthand glimpse into the intersection of culture and business.
The success of ISCOM's International Days underscores the importance of embracing diversity and fostering intercultural dialogue in today's interconnected world. By bringing together individuals from diverse backgrounds, events like these not only enrich the academic experience but also cultivate a spirit of global citizenship and cooperation.
