DIPA participates in the innovative Erasmus plus project “Cultural Risk in the Organisation in the Globalisation Era Competences vs. Reality, ref number 2018-1-PL01-KA204-051056” and the acronym Cult_Risk.

The CULT_Risk project addresses the idea of cultural awareness and the risk of culture clash in the era of migration influx in Europe. It aims at the increase of the awareness on potential cultural risks in the organisations and on acquiring the competences, which should be crucial in order the company functions effectively.

People from different cultures have different approach to work and they can understand many things in different manner.
