This second revised version took into consideration several suggestions submitted to the editors. The work covers the whole content of the 1974 Recommendation and aims at providing support to teachers and educational administrators in the performance of their responsibilities with regard to various aspects of international education. The guide will present different ways to approach international education, will encourage the teachers to develop their own strategies, will hopefully initiate various activities, presenting some successful examples which can possibly be transferred into or modified for different situations, thereby stimulating teaching and learning in international education at all levels and stages.
