Project Summary

“Come Together!” focuses on how we might influence our future in positive ways. The main goal of the project is to bring positive and long-lasting benefits. The effects of the project cover the understanding and better reaction to social, ethnic, linguistic and cultural diversity. The understanding of the cultural diversity means the understanding and respect for human rights and democracy and encouraging tolerance and respect for other people and cultures. If we communicate and work together, we can gain competences and qualifications in Europe and beyond. Also, people’s meetings reinforce people’s motivation to learn less widely used language, English and German, so this project has a positive impact on a more active participation in society. This project allows us to have a more positive attitude towards a European project and EU values.

The project pursues four themes that include family life, traditional dances and music, traditional meals and traditional handmade products. These themes allow us to incorporate goals and hopefully results of the project in the curriculum, in order to encourage didactic approaches, innovative strategies, creativity and to build the spirit of teamwork through modern technological communication. We will also use our shared project meetings for presentations. Being 6 schools from 6 countries we want to create a sense of European citizenship based on understanding and respect for other people and their cultures.

The innovation of the project is based on the fact that it covers the school communities understood as a whole system involving students, teachers and families in planned activities so that we can reach the general public. Our goal is to disseminate the ongoing development of the project through internet, live broadcasts, local newspapers, radio and television.
The project will have approximately 120 employees and students employed in 6 mobility in Germany, Turkey, Estonia, Lithuania, Netherlands and Serbia for a period of 2 years.
The full list of project results include the following:
-6 short student exchanges, in which students will work together to develop collaboration skills, communication skills, problem solving, teamwork, critical thinking and learning about different cultures of countries;
-students will train their peers when they return to their schools;
-collaboration in eTwinning;
-selecting students and implementing the project.

The benefits of the project are priceless and long-lasting, because our project has the social and educational values of Europe’s cultural heritage. It will contribute to job creation, economic growth and social cohesion. The basis of yhe project is the development of both teachers and pupils, from a cultural point of view, to respect different religions, beliefs and skin color and to help minorities’ and migrants’ inclusion in our societies. We are all different, but at the same time we are all equal.

For a lovable Europe that lives in peace, values people for being human : COME TOGETHER
