Global Citizenship and Multilingual Competences (GCMC) is an Erasmus+ project with partners in Austria, UK, Netherlands, Italy and Germany (2020-2023).
Last week at the ACTFL conference in Chicago, Salam Mairi (Pic 2) talked about teacher educators' journey in different European countries in integrating global citizenship education (GCE) and multilingual competences (MC) into their teaching practices.
