IMQP Students participate to the EMA's Project "Inter-Connected Fostering Positive Intergroup Contact and Youth Leadership through Intercultural Competence"
Since 2016, the International Master in Quaternary and Prehistory (IMQP) course about Southeast Asian Prehistory evolved into an international training oriented towards current challenges in the concerned field in terms of scientific research, conservation, development, tourism and involvement of local communities. As for example, the Human Origins Heritage (HOH) participatory school was organized in 2018 and 2019 together with Universitas Kristen Satya Wacana (Salatiga, Java, Indonesia), a partner of the IMQP consortium. It included a stay in the field for students, teachers, and heritage professionals from various institutions.
