Our mentoring scheme offers the opportunity to develop professional networks and to acquire and apply practical skills for the world of work in international organisations, global cooperation agencies, and national departments that take an international perspective on education.The teaching team combines expertise and research experience in many parts of the world, including North, South and Central America Southeast Asia Sub-Saharan Africa the Arab World and Western and Eastern Europe.
