The context of project implementation, as already is indicated in the proposal, is focused on the situation that a lot of people has lived or live nowedays with the arrival of waves of immigrants or refugees. This fact of cultural contrast introduces certain economic and social problems, that we wanted to trait in the classrooms of partner schools. That was spread outside of the school environment to an online common meeting space for students and teachers thanks to social networks as facebook or whatsap. This project was also expanded following the model of an active school process socially involved in extracurricular activities thanks to other spaces provided by NGOs and institutions, which collaborated actively with us in terms of providing information of assesment to its implementation.We have been six partner schools in this project. All of them are secondary and vocational schools, whose students are between 12 and 20 years old.As already was writen in the initial proposal, Eurintegrate was focused on a final goal: the creation of a role game with well-defined rules, scnerarios and characters. Certainly a theater perfomance has also been included in the process, in reference to those scenarios and characters that have been appearing throughout the process of the game creation. This perfomance was played by the students during the last activities meeting in April of the 2018 in Thessaloniki in front of a school and family audience. The play showed some possible situations arising from the role game.Evidently, other objectives have been reached, to a greater or lesser degree, through the creation of the role game. An example of which have also been achieved:-Encouragement of teamwork and teamlearning, both in teachers and students groups.-More inclusive education: sensitivity to diversity, developingempathy and self-reflection, generating greater ethical awareness regarding many situations that students and teacher could share with the main protagonists in talks, meetings...-Broading awareness of European Citizenship-Integration of new intellectual tools in the classroom: encouraging the use of digital learning strategies thanks to the new technologies.-Students' empowerment in reference to human rights-Developing of new interactive learning methodologies by teachers.-Encouragement and improvement in the foreign languages .Regarding teachers of our school, all teachers have participated in some punctual activities in one way or another -as for example in the preparation of speachs, workshoops or an intercultural lunch offered by the APYMA where representatives of immigrants and refugees were invited to take part in it. Although the most involved teachers have been in a self-nominated group: the Erasmus group formed by 7 teachers who coordinated activities and results. They belonged to different departments: Foreign Languages, Spanish language, Mathematics, Philosophy or Biology...Regarding the profile of the students: they were of 3rd. and th. of ESO and some of 1st of Bachillerato,Concluding, about 200 students have befefited directly, although this number can be increasing because our final product, a role game, is a pedagogical tool that can be used in the classroom.The impact has been enourmously positive, given the impact on the educational community of our schools, families wish that their children to participate in similar international projects, because consider them an effective source of learning. Also students and teacher are more motivated to take part in similar activities and likewise the sensivity towards the treated topics refferring to social integration of immigrants and refugees and their social repercussions of the stutdents work has been transferred to the media though interwievs, blogs of journalists, broadcast of the news. Outside of the schope of our schoole we carry out a talk at the CEP of Palma in May and some teachers have agreed to participate as speakers at the CEP of Palma showing Eurintegrate project during the Erasmus Good Practices day in the Balearic Islands on November the 14th. It must be included an paper about the Eurintegrate project read at the IV Congress of Analytical Psycology by Mª Mercedes Domínguez, the project coordinator at the IES Joan M. Thomàs.
