Abstract

Che cosa significa “imparare” all'interno di un gruppo di persone appartenenti a culture differenti? In che modo un individuo incontra persone di altre culture, quando non vi è una chiara predominanza “quantitativa” di nessuna cultura? Questo lavoro costituisce uno studio di fenomenologia ermeneutica che indaga, attraverso gli interrogativi indicati, il fenomeno dell'apprendere all'interno di un gruppo culturalmente eterogeneo. Si è condotto uno studio fenomenologico con giovani (18-30 anni) provenienti da diversi paesi dell'Unione Europea, che hanno partecipato ad un progetto di mobilità con finalità di apprendimento del Servizio di Volontariato Europeo e con un’esperienza di volontariato all'estero di lunga durata. La ricerca si concentra sui momenti di interazione interculturale vis-à-vis durante il processo di apprendimento in gruppi. Nello specifico, attraverso la descrizione di esperienze vissute e la riflessione fenomenologica, lo studio descrive come i giovani percepiscano se stessi e gli altri quando si trovano ad apprendere in un gruppo culturalmente eterogeneo. Le esperienze vissute dai giovani conducono gli stessi in una “terra di nessuno” (Waldenfelds, 2011) dove unione e separazione esistono simultaneamente.
