Inclusive Comprehensive Internationalization (ICI - 2021-1-ES01-KA220-HED-000027552) is an Erasmus+ Cooperation Partnership, co-financed by the European Union Erasmus+ Program for 2022-2025. The aim of the project is to help create equal opportunities with all students and enable them to benefit from internationalization, regardless of their origin, orientation or capabilities, as well as to improve their international and intercultural competences.

The ICI conference is the final event of the project, during which the achieved goals, expected and unexpected results and partners' conclusions will be presented.
