What are cultural integration activities in an Erasmus+ programme?

The orientation meeting and the tour of Braga, and optional weekend pedagogical visits, each with a pedagogical objective: Braga, Guimarães, Porto, Viana do Castelo, and Lisbon with Fátima.

Direct answer: in BragaMob programmes in Braga, Portugal, cultural integration activities help participants understand the country where they are working: its economy, its institutions and its heritage. They take place at the weekend, without interrupting the placement, and they are optional: your school chooses them.

• Every programme starts with an orientation meeting and a tour of Braga: where the placements are, how to get there, where to eat, who to call.
• Weekend pedagogical visits, each with a pedagogical objective and the competences it links to, such as cultural awareness, European citizenship or language. The route our final reports of recent mobilities document: Braga (Bom Jesus and Sameiro), Guimarães, Porto, Viana do Castelo, and Lisbon with Fátima.
• Other destinations in Portugal, such as the Gerês National Park or Aveiro, can be included depending on the duration of the mobility and the programme agreed with your school.
• Optional trips outside Portugal: Santiago de Compostela and Vigo. They are not part of the internship itself; your school decides whether to include them and how to fund them.
• Your quote lists each service you choose.
