The idea behind Uniser Teacher Week was to create a dedicated space where teachers and school leaders could reflect, think ahead, and learn together about the internationalisation of education. From the very first edition, this event encouraged participants to share experiences, exchange ideas, and collaborate on projects, turning inspiration into tangible partnerships.

Over the years, each edition explored a new thematic focus – from sustainability to digital skills to inclusion – responding to the evolving needs of educators and schools across Europe and beyond. This experience not only strengthened professional skills but also fostered a community of practice, laying the groundwork for the broader Uniser Teacher Weeks programme we have today.

Held on 7-9 May 2025 in Bologna, this edition focused on how schools can make international education truly inclusive. Participants explored how to design mobility and cooperation projects that can reach all learners and how to embed inclusion as a core value of their internationalisation strategies. 

Workshops and peer learning sessions addressed practical ways to overcome barriers to participation, from language and financial constraints to digital access and physical mobility. By sharing experiences and tools, educators worked toward a shared goal: ensuring that international opportunities are equitable, accessible, and meaningful for every student.

International Skills in the Digital Era

Held on 8-10 May 2024 in Bologna, this edition focused on how internationalisation and digital transformation intersect to shape the skills of both teachers and learners. Participants explored how global learning experiences can nurture key competences such as adaptability, empathy, critical thinking, and entrepreneurship. 

The discussions addressed how new technologies are redefining how international experiences are designed, delivered, and recognised. Teachers reflected on their role in this transformation, developing strategies to make digitalisation a driver for inclusion, collaboration, and quality in international education.

The Sustainable Internationalisation

Held on 10-12 May 2023 at Fondazione Golinelli in Bologna, the first edition of Uniser Teacher Week explored what it means to make the internationalisation of education truly sustainable. 

Environmental impact, resource management, and the growing demand for mobility challenged participants to rethink how schools can prepare students for a global society while ensuring long-term, responsible international engagement. Teachers and school leaders reflected on new approaches to integrate internationalisation into everyday learning, use digital tools to simplify processes, and promote greener, more inclusive forms of mobility.
