Project Summary

The project addresses the topic on migration in the past and present and the different countries experiences. Migration is a recurrent political question in Europe, and in the world. A question that raises questions and feelings among the citizens. The project aims to help our students to expand their general knowledge, and have a better understanding of the world they live in by unbiased and science based discussions.

During this project the pupils will be able to meet different countries experiences of migration in the past and the present and have a chance to discuss the situation the Europe, as well as the global community, is facing. We will have four meetings, one in each participating country, where the students will learn about that countrys experience. Each meeting will involve five students and two teachers from each country, which means that a total of 80 pupils and 16 teachers will be directly involved.

The expected impact is, besides awarness about migration in the past and the present, to promote European values such as Human Rights and Democracy, trengthening Civic skills and enhancing cultural understanding and a sense of belonging to community and encouraging the participation of young people in democratic life in EU, cultural openness and mobility.

The project will also strengthen the teachers competence and produce material which the schools can use in the future.
