Vinga folkhögskola
I'm working with an international profile at the Swedish folk high school in Gothenburg, in western Sweden: https://vingafolkhogskola.se/. The main aim of the studies at our school is for adults to get the needed qualifications to be able to advance to higher studies, or to improve their chances to get a job and most of the students come from other countries. In the international profile, adult students studying elementary or upper secondary school have the chance to increase their understanding of international issues. The school was founded about five years ago, so we don't have any international connections from before, even though both our staff and students are quite international in themselves. Now we are looking for partnership with another school in a neighbouring country, that we could start a cooperation with. The aim of the partnership is both to start a cooperation around a specific topic that we could work with together and also in general for our students to get in touch with students in another country, in order to broaden their perspectives and understanding of situations in other countries. Hopefully this cooperation could lead to an exchange where we meet one another physically, that we could visit your country and school and you could visit us. I'm more specifically looking for partnership with a school in one of the Baltic states, where I think we could get maximum broadening of perspectives, with minimum effort and travel distance. I really looking forward to this cooperation!
