"As mentioned before, we were motivated to apply for this project because we wanted to examine one of the biggest issues the European Union was and is struggling with at the moment: the so-called ""refugee crisis"". On the political scale, European politicians are trying to solve the challenge by a mechanism that forces some countries to welcome refugees. However, this is not the only problem that comes along with this challenge. Also, countries like Germany and Sweden, who have been quite open as lots of migrants fled to Europe in 2015 are still facing challenges of all sorts, ranging from strong right-wing opposition to extremism caused by the inlux of these immigrants, but also because integrating a huge number of people from a different cultural background causes difficulties, no matter where in the world. Other countries, like Greece or Italy, are facing similar problems, especially right-wing and populist opposition to these migrants, but also seem to be left alone in this crisis due to European policies and their geographical situation. All of these countries were part of this project. Spain has a similar problem to Italy, as it is very close to Morocco, Belgium has a similar situation to Germany, as it has a long history of integrating foreign people to their society and a quite multicultural society. All these countries combined, there was a great mix of ways of how of to deal with people from a different cultural background. As we see it, we did all learn from each other, but also helped each other as we have similar and different challenges in each of our countries. However, this issue can only be tackled on an intercultural European scale, which is why we applied for this project. In this project, we compared and exchanged ideas and ways of coping with the issues above (i.e. How to deal with minorities?) in order to help our countries, but also other countries in Europe, to find solutions for this crisis. We see it as a way of showing best-practices on the one hand, but also to show what doesn't work on the other and how to manage these challenges. This project aimed at a general lack of awareness of the other cultures, prejudices and stereotypes against them which can lead to social exclusion. In many countries all over Europe we can see a huge number of children born and raised in countries that are not home to their parents. Due to the fact that a lot of children do not learn the language of the target society properly, as they only speak foreign languages at home and do not grow up in communities that speak the language of the target society, a number of these children lack behind academically.In this project, we aimed at connecting with these students and give them the opportunity to learn outside the regular learning environment by including them into our project. We created an atmosphere where participants were able to recognize prejudgemental and discriminatory behaviour among themselves which in turn formed them into critical thinkers and helped establish a non-exclusional school environment. Students participated on a highly active level during the whole process of the project in order to make them identify with its goals and to have life-long learning effects. We mixed the group of participants, e.g. had students from different cultural and social backgrounds, so that we had a wide spectrum of ideas and a realistic profile of European involvement, as we think that Europe is also not one-dimensional but mulit-facetted. This is something the students learned in this project. We sendt a minimum amount of four students to each LTT. The activities are a mixture of activities that aimed at raising cultural awareness in a European context in generel and activities that aimed at the achievement of our project's objectives in particular (e.g. interviewing migrants). We worked on one of the following subjects: - Migrants' issues - Romas or other minorities - Tolerance, respect and EU Citizenship - Ethnic, racial, cultural and religious diversity - Understanding prejudices and stereotype - Globalization: Loss of cultural identity? We had each of the following activities and results: 1 Presentation 2 Seminar 3 Round table discussion 4 Questionnaire on the subject 5 Guest speaker/s 6 Workshop Creativity (poster contest) 7 Workshop Game (e.g. ice-breakers) 8 International party 9 Trip to a local museum 10 Trip to a cultural site (e.g. UNESCO world heritage) 11 Culture in a box: Each partner school received information on customs, traditions and cultures of another partner. Then a team had to present another country with the information given by the other country. This increased the intercultural exchange and also raise self-awareness among students. 12 Poster on similarities and differences between the host and the guest nation"
