Learning Experiences

Educational mobility as a tool for social inclusion and stimulation of civic participation.

We are devoted to support mobility experiences for people at all ages, in order to overtake borders and sectors and turn the learning process into a real life experience, an experience that has to be strongly valued and shared with the others.

Discover our mobility and learning opportunities, get inspired and motivated by others’ stories and testimonies, and eventually enjoy a mobility experience at CESIE!
