The following paper was developed in the context of internationalization in education and how international education can be promoted. According to a popular online encyclopedia, internationalization in a broader sense can be regarded as international activities, mostly regarded in an economic sense as the process of increasing involvement of enterprises in international markets (see: Wikipedia/internationalization) However, international activities in the economy not only affect economies itself but also societies worldwide. Therefore, people involved need to adapt their perspective from a national towards a more international one. Thus, activities towards internationalization should first of all be promoted in education for students to acquire the necessary intercultural knowledge to be equipped with the necessary competencies to become a global citizen.
