It is a collaboration between the Centre for Education and Teaching Innovation (CETI), Education, Diversity, and Equality, and international universities in Thailand, Vietnam, and Turkey. This course aims to give students a deep understanding of cross-cultural research and its global significance. Depending on logistics, students may visit any of these countries for a field trip. During the trip, students will have the opportunity to engage with community leaders, local officials, and activists who are dedicated to promoting democratic values. They will also attend seminars and workshops to gain insight into the political, economic, and social landscape.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f9f2d4f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7f9f2d4f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36ad7b55 elementor-arrows-position-inside elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-carousel\" data-id=\"36ad7b55\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;slides_to_show&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;navigation&quot;:&quot;arrows&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_hover&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_interaction&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;autoplay_speed&quot;:5000,&quot;infinite&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;slide&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:500}\" data-widget_type=\"image-carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel-wrapper swiper\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"carousel\" aria-label=\"Image Carousel\" dir=\"ltr\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel swiper-wrapper\" aria-live=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"1 of 12\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/democraticeducationnetwork.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dem-Eng-Gabby-768x397-2.png\" alt=\"Dem-Eng-Gabby-768x397\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 768px;
