I like to integrate my anthropological background within my business knowledge and tech curiosity. Tolerance, open-mindedness and respect are important values for me.
I have an expertise of more than 20 years in training, education, and coaching. I worked with different target groups, but the main topics are intercultural competencies, business, and entrepreneurship. I have experience in different multicultural teams, on and offline. In 2021 I designed a COIL ( Collaborative online international course) about intercultural communication, with students from Europe, Africa, and Asia. I design and develop new (digital) educational methods and tools, with strong attention to the building of collective knowledge (communities). I have an extended international network within the edtech ecosystem.
I’m a cognitive person and I love wondering and wandering, that reflection you can find on my blog https://evelienverschroeven.be/blog/
