P.IR.A.M.iD. (Path for Intercultural Awareness, Measurement and Development) aims to structure the intercultural competencies of VET students and teachers in the tourism sector, together with tourism companies, through training activities and transnational mobilities.

The aim is to raise awareness and provide useful and applicable tools and methods for defining and assessing these competences.
