Active kids for a better future
Our Erasmus+ project
Active kids for a better future
We are aware of the importance and strong commitment of the European Union to the protection of human rights, democracy and the environment. In fact, such issues are present in most European law policies.
Through this project we want to increase active citizenship among students. We want them to be aware of all the social concerns that surround them (environmental issues, poverty, exclusion for people with disabilities, neglect of the elderly, etc.) and to become sensitive to these issues. It is important for them to know that no help is small and we can all improve our society. We want to develop a real and lasting inclusive attitude of students and teachers.
Therefore, we believe that they can start by changing things in their school, neighborhood, and city.
During the planned activities and the meeting, we want to make our students aware that cooperation is the key to solving most problems in their world. Through contact with other realities and cultures they can gain a broader vision to find solutions. Teachers from participating schools will exchange and empower good practices, share materials and resources in the process of training our students to become active citizens, to become more tolerant and understanding of different groups of people, dealing with different topics.
