    Water scarcity, the world will face with in near future, is the basic study of our project. 2020 Europe’s Growth Strategy lays a great emphasis on efficient use of the sources,so, our target is raising awareness of our environmental sensivity and efficiency on protection of water sources.(https://ec.europa.eu/info/business-economy-euro/economic-and-fiscal-policy-coordination/eu-economic-governance-monitoring-prevention-correction/european-semester/framework/europe-2020-strategy_en) Word Water Foundation (WWF)declares Turkey as under water stress and it will have been called as water poor country before 2030. Especially Konya,known as the granary of Turkey, has lost the level 1 to 15m in 2007 and 14.3m in last 33 years.(http://d2hawiim0tjbd8.cloudfront.net/downloads/turkiyenin_ekolojik_ayak_izi_raporu.pdf) Not only our country, but also some European countries are worried about lack of water and water resources pollution.47% of the participants (almost the half of them) in the survey of EU25 by Eurobarometer have emphasized their worry about water pollution and this rate may increase to 71% for individual countries.Water problem is one of the five basic environment problem for them. This is one of the reasons of EU’s priorities to save water. EU’s New European Water Policy is an action plan for recleaning the dirty water, consuming reasonably and saving clean water by including public. http://ec.europa.eu/environment/water/water-framework/info/intro_en.htm http://ec.europa.eu/environment/water/participation/notes_en.htm Within the scope of these motivation elements,we have started an E-Twinning project on water consumption theme internationally.(https://twinspace.etwinning.net/51900/home) However, we aim to imply this project in real by including students and teachers, especially in disadvantaged areas, to show the importance of education at early ages and to tackle with the negative effects of early school leaving such as antisocial behaviours,negative viewpoints towards schools, illiteracy on theoric, social or environmental subjects etc. by the methodologies of learning with entertaining implementations, multilateral learning strategies, learning on dramas/role-plays/simple simulations, learning based on problem/implementation etc. ALL PARTNERS' SURVEY RESULTS: (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xCemlE099fHDcG6T-L5cm96WzGCez7ug) We aim to create the awareness about that ‘water resources are not endless’ and we follow the motto that ‘Water is the Common Property of All the World!’ All choosing criterias/qualities of the participants and meetings have been mentioned on section 'LTT' and 'Timetable' in details. If we summarize our activities; various visual,musical, cultural activities, planting and watering at school, Creating a website and a project page on E-Twinning,Facebook,Moodle, Erasmus+ Projects Results platforms,designing logo, posters and slogans, creating a team of water in every school “Water Watchers”, various water games, seminars about reasonable water consumption and lack of water, dissemination(exhibitions, newsletters, a short film for public awareness etc),analysing the water quality and the researches for solutions, writing postcards among students and parents abroad collaboratively for sharing experiences and ideas about saving water, Using educational Internet programmes for implementing activities, Creating a simple Pedia, E-book on water theme, Observational trips to natural water resources etc. A carnival on water theme,Making models etc. For process management; all coordinators will use Planning, Configuration,Preparing process calendar, Project Coordination, Documantation, Quality, Procurement, Reporting Methods. For measurement; all partner school teachers will use competitions,quizes,surveys,rubrics, observations, absolute and relative evaluations, level defining evaluation, ordering and classifying evaluations. Impact; we will plan to power up social clubs about natural resources. According to the efficiency of the club activities and reports in behavioral change about the usage of water, we will present our concrete outputs to relevant institutions to make a new point of view on education at an early age. We are also combating with obligatory drop-outs because of traditional agriculture practices in disadvantaged places. As it is highlighted in Europe 2020 Strategies, we need decreasing the rate of students who leave schools early under %10. Moreover, we will try to accomplish our aims and priorities by; * Cooperation with other schools abroad and transparency, * Stronger relationships of participants, * Better teamwork between management, administration departments, teachers, students, * Improvement of support and participation of parents to school life, * Participation of local stakeholders to education (local and regional authorities,companies, etc) * Developing digital skills of all participants, * Understanding the concept of EU, * Tolerance to different cultures.

    "Young people, wherever they live, face similar problems such as environmental disruption or pollution, globalization, land immigration, economic crisis and the crisis of moral values. We believe that education has a crucial role in allowing them to sharpen their senses through a critical thinking and a sense of responsibility for an involvement in the democratic process. Education equips our young learners with the skills and values needed to be responsible global citizens, such as respect for human rights, gender equality and environmental sustainability. Investing in and strengthening a country's education sector is key to the development of any country and its people. We want to build a project on Human Rights Education to make students aware of global issues (European citizenship, xenophobia, racism, gender equality, peace, violence against women) through the study of international celebrations and commemorations. Every culture has their own way to celebrate and commemorate which offers an insight to the unique values and beliefs of that particular culture. Its singularity will be shown to the rest of countries involved in the project in order to discover how local communities perform or react towards these dates. Through the two-year partnership, we are looking forward to sharing good practices and develop our learning about each other, about different countries’approaches to education and values, and develop pupil and teachers activities linked with the international celebrations theme. Partnerships are proven to be a most effective way to achieve strong development outcomes.To achieve one of the goals of the project - inclusion and equity - we propose sports as a vehicle for social inclusion due to its characteristics, its impact on people and its beneficial effects on individuals as well as on society. The monthly ""Tolerance Cup"" aimes to empower the students living with disabilities to recognise their own potential, and also to encourage all students to be more inclusive of all people in their community. For students who are in school failure or who tend to leave school we are going to provide an extensive pedagogical care. A substantial part of the project consists of practical and non-academical activities which makes it easier to engage these students into them : create a the Europe's Garden, ""Carry on !"" inform campaigns on preservation of the ozone layer or ""Love your heart and share your heart"" campaign of solidarity with people suffering from incurable diseases, debates against the violence; cooking workshops or fruits/vegetable carving art; create posters and to directly involve in organizing of exhibitions. Such students will be involved in group work, and the tasks assigned to them will be chosen taking into account their abilities and skills, and conducted under a supervision of peer group leaders and teachers. At last but not at least we want to form digital competences to our students. We embrace the concept of ""digital citizen"" that is taught to our students: a citizen who uses new technologies in a responsible manner, worthy of his century. Our students will enhance their ICT competences by creating digital products: create films or numerical presentations about national sportsmen and sportswomen, medalists at the Olympic/Paralympic games; series of videos or numerical presentations, create a poem in 5 mother tongues and a video on the European anthem music,“Women who have changed the world”, “What EU does for my country ?”, ""My family, my first school”(family is the first school in which a child receives the basic values of life). Connections during student mobilities in order to follow the activities will be organized thanks to on line eTwinning tools. Number of beneficiaries : directly about 100 persons per institution, so about 500 in total, indirectly beneficiaries (other institutions, parents, migrants, etc) 300. Students will improve communication skills, linguistic and IT abilities, cultural exchange that contributes to understanding of the European values. Teachers will able to use new teaching methods to fight against early school leaving by providing attractive and interactive activities. The results of the project will be disseminated by using national and European platforms and also on the project websites, which will ensure an international visibility of the project and it will remain available even after the full implementation of our project tasks. During the project the members involved -families, school staff, teachers and principals- will have opportunities to come in contact with five European countries (Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece and Spain): different cultures, religions, languages, economic markets, all European citizens BORN EQUAL, but they LIVE DIFFERENT (that is why our project is named BELIVE), but all having a single aim –to nurture the values and attitudes of young people to lead them to a better consciousness of human rights."
