| Long abstract | The scientific interdisciplinary monograph is dedicated to intercultural communication in the field of healthy lifestyle, sustainable development and green transition in the university and global environment. Intercultural communication has recently become an interesting research area in translation studies, as it connects several scientific disciplines and draws attention to the importance of mutual understanding and respectful and constructive communication in various scientific fields. The monograph offers contributions in English and German dedicated to the meaning and role of multilingual and terminologically challenging communication in a contemporary and sustainably oriented society. The discussions focus on the results of research and findings of the international project EDU-FIT which focused on developing healthy lifestyle habits among students in a multicultural and multilingual university environment, taking into account sensitive communication and terminology related to overweight, which is often a consequence of changes in diet and lifestyle when adolescents enter high education programs. Scientific researches by Slovene and foreign translation scholars and linguists focus on various theoretical and practical aspects of communication in the light of extraordinary dynamics of contemporary intercultural connections and information transfer. |
