The project aimed to create a platform for exchange and networking through transnational meetings. The aim was to jointly develop methodological, didactic and practical findings and integrate them into formal and informal educational formats. The involvement of the target groups in the planning was to ensure that their needs were taken into account. Task-based learning as well as project and group work were to promote sustainable knowledge building in international meetings and cultural diversity, support the discourse on global topics and skills development. Topics such as diversity, environmental protection and social cohesion were to be the focus, as were questions about a diversity-sensitive curriculum, dealing with social tensions and the active promotion of changes in perspective. Answers to questions such as: How targeted is our curriculum actually? How can we make our curriculum more sensitive to diversity, focus more on the idea of environmental protection and promote European social cohesion within the EU?
Addressing diverse target groups in educational programmes that meet both global integration requirements and culturally specific needs in urban and rural areas is a major challenge. The exchange with European partners makes this task easier. A new understanding of education is needed: curricula must be rethought, new methods and competences developed and teachers/learners strengthened as joint actors. Diversity should no longer just be a topic, but the starting point of education - a quality feature in terms of content, didactics, social and organisational aspects. Educational institutions are called upon to create learning environments in which differences are treated consciously and with appreciation. The organisations involved are working together to find answers to the question of how inclusive, diverse learning can be designed.
