Reflective practice research in international collaboration – developing teacher education in togetherness explores how teacher education can serve as a space of ethical, relational and spiritual transformation for all involved. Drawing on international projects connecting Norway, Ukraine, India, Finland and Palestine, the authors employ a reflective practice research approach to critically and theoretically examine unique lived experiences of cross-cultural encounters. International collaboration is seen not merely as the institutional exchange of students and staff, but also as existential practices of mutual discovery and flourishing. Guro Hansen Helskog is a full professor in pedagogy at the University of South-Eastern Norway. Ingrid R. Christensen is a full professor in pedagogy at the Norwegian Police University College. Åsmund Aamaas is an associate professor in social studies education at the University of South-Eastern Norway.}
