Giusy Froio

She graduated from Milan University with a Bachelor’s degree in “Language Mediation and Intercultural Communication” in 2017. Also, she had the opportunity to spend 5 months in Paris thanks to the Erasmus+ program having a first approach to different learning methods and contact with a broader multicultural context.

In 2021, she earned a Master’s Degree in “Planning and Management of Tourism Systems” at the University of Bergamo, which allowed her to deepen her studies about sustainable tourism and cultural heritage. During these years her academic research was based mainly on Calabria territory as a tourism destination and she specialized on the theme of intangible heritage as a resource for sustainable development.

Relating to her professional career, she worked as a cultural mediator in museums such as Triennale Milano in Milan and as a luxury hotel receptionist and event planner in Tuscany.

In 2023 she started traveling solo around the world, visiting European and extra-European countries, strengthening her passion for cultural exchange and her belief that with empathy and an open mind, the world is a beautiful place to live.

These experiences now inform her professional work: at Jump, she works as an Erasmus+ trainer, delivering training courses on Intercultural Communication, Culturally Responsive Teaching, Global Education, and European Cultural Heritage. In her courses, she guides participants in acquiring cultural awareness, developing intercultural competencies, and fostering inclusive, globally-minded approaches in education.

She is also highly experienced in non-formal education approaches, engaging adults and students of all ages, promoting active participation, critical thinking, and collaborative learning, while adapting methodologies to diverse cultural and educational contexts.
