"Multiculturality, diversity, integration - equal opportunities for everyone"
These are the most important challenges for today’s Europe. In a more and more diverse and multicultural society people face with a dual situation: to be able for a deeply integration or to preserve their cultural/ethnic identity. Partners are Romania, Turkey, Germany, Italy, Estonia, Republic of North Macedonia
The problems are: difficulties to integrate students of minorities, refugees, with different backgrounds in every day school life; lack of competences and important skills for most of students from a risk situation– communication or intercultural skills, lack of self-confidence and support, problems of identit, the gap between majority and minorities students – they are not eager to better know the traditions or cultural values of the others; discrimination or marginalization of minorities, refugees or migrants; difficulties to learn the languages in their new countries (Italy, Germany, Turkey) or the
language of majority (in Romania)
This project will help our students to come closer to different cultures and get familiar to different
traditions and different ways of life.
The objectives are: Promoting of equal right to education for 40% of our students increase the motivation for learning among students from vulnerable groups for the next years Foster the integration process of people with different backgrounds in a multicultural area

knowledge through common activities
Improve skills and competences such as critical thinking, communication, creativity and team
