About project

The project idea derives from the worrying situation that many students in Europe have low state of belonging to their own cultures and have prejudices towards other European cultures.The prejudices coming from history remain as an obstacle for the different European cultures to recognise each other.The main objectives of the project are to develop a cultural awareness,prevent prejudices against others,promote European cultural and language diversity which popular culture has shadowed. The project intends to give the pupils a sense of their own identities,while teaching them to respect and accept the identities,cultures and traditions of others and thus mutual cultural awareness will streghten their own and their European identity.They will discover the similar aspects of different cultures and traditions,life styles,and promote better understanding of others and a sense of European citizenship. Students learn by producing materials about traditional cuisine and customes by discovering the value of clothing as a means of culture and develop the manual skills thanks to building architectural house models and arouse interest in joint historical heritage and promoting ICT skills by project activities.Pupils will act a drama written in the languages of all partner countries and performed by pupils involved.This will draw attention to multilinguism in our European home.
