Objectives

The main goals of the project are: For students: greater involvement in the social life of students, dissemination of common values, development of mathematical and linguistic competences, reducing disproportions between students from disadvantaged financial backgrounds, developing sensitivity and responsibility for themselves, but also for the guests received, during mobility and, as a consequence, opening up to the needs of other people. But also to develop awareness of other cultures, through confrontation with foreign languages and customs. For teachers: increasing language competences, learning new methods of students' work, establishing relationships that will be used in the implementation of future projects. The aim of the project was also to strengthen the relationship between parents and the school and to raise the image of the school in the local community.

Background

The idea of the project was born out of the observation of the fact that an increasing number of students are not interested in conscious and active participation in social life. Young people ignore the role of international institutions and often do not understand their impact on the daily lives of citizens. Students from Hungary, Italy and Polish struggled with the negative consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, e.g. the deterioration of the economic status of families, fear for the future, and lack of trust in the authorities. The project aimed to increase the recognition of European institutions among students and to educate active European citizens. We wanted to activate the attitude of students towards social life and provoke them to participate in it. Meeting people from different countries and working in multicultural teams was a great opportunity for the students to exchange ideas and impressions. Students could inspire each other by showing different problems from different perspectives. The motivation to implement our project was strengthened by the fact that 2022 was declared the European Year of Youth. We wanted to put our project in this context and profit from it.
