Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to examine if the experiences with translanguaging as a way of integration in language education, can have a positive influence when applied back in the migrating (home) countries. This is especially relevant for the multicultural countries in the Western Balkans that are affected by migration not only because of economic reasons, but also because of the instability and conflicts between the different nationalities. Sixty (60) university students from Kosovo and North Macedonia participate in the study. Data collection instruments include a questionnaire for students and interviews with university and high school professors.
