Abstract

This article presents an ethnosociological study of an international cooperation project in education. The aim is to suggest ways of exploring the internationalization of research and training, using ethnographic materials and a qualitative methodology. Indeed, while the internationalization of training and research is often discussed in current scientific literature, interculturality remains a little-studied topic. The diversity of institutional and professional cultures can generate obstacles to the implementation of research projects. This article proposes the idea that an intercultural approach, in conjunction with research, could facilitate the development of skills adapted to a multicultural context, and contribute positively to the success of projects. With this in mind, it identifies and analyzes the obstacles to and levers for project engineering in an intercultural context, and proposes a reflection on the cross-cutting issue in the intercultural issue in higher education.
