Objectives

By implementing the project, we aimed to create an experience-based educational program to deepen students' and teachers' understanding of shared EU values and cultural heritage through hands-on learning. Our goal was to establish a strategic partnership across six European countries—Hungary, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Portugal, and Sweden—to foster awareness of the EU’s social, cultural, and historical heritage across five disciplines: Literature, Art, Languages, History, and Science. Each country took on a specific focus area—Hungary led Art, Norway Science, Lithuania Language, Poland History, and Sweden Literature—while the Portuguese partner, Casa de Professor, organized workshops and trainings and developed a catalog of teaching resources. Through this collaboration, we sought to enhance global, cultural, and transversal competencies, equipping participants with skills to adapt to economic, technological, and environmental changes. The project aimed to build linguistic, social, and personal skills, strengthen European identity, and promote professional growth, renewed teaching methodologies, and intercultural understanding.

Background

Through this project, the aim was to address the need for fostering a deeper European identity among students, one that encouraged curiosity about other cultures and promoted respect for diverse traditions. By doing so, the intention was to create an environment where students not only learned about the EU's social and cultural dimensions but also developed friendships and human connections that made them feel like active, valued members of the Union. In this way, the project contributed to building a generation that is informed, engaged, and motivated to participate in the EU's future.
