The project Digital Storytelling on Sharing Economy, abbreviated as DISSE, aimed at reconsidering the concepts of 'property' and 'sharing' across Europe. Society faced rapid and technology-driven changes. New technologies found their way into all living environments, and the development of online platforms made sharing easier than ever. Throughout Europe, many new business models focused on sharing emerged, turning sharing and swapping into a billion Euro market. As an economic factor, the sharing economy was likely to become increasingly important within the ensuing years. Therefore, this relatively recent cooperative sharing economy needed to be included in the list of school topics. Pupils needed to gain a realistic view of the Sharing Economy and all its aspects and many facets.
