The project
is carried out by two schools from Romania and Spain, on the basis of their
common Latin origin and has as purpose identifying the common problems and
overcoming social and economic barriers.
Our aims
for this project are:
·
To
raise the students’ motivation by sustaining their interest in learning foreign
languages other than English and French.
·
To
promote European citizenship and education for sustainable development and to
contribute to a wider opening towards European values.
The aims respond to the fact that
nowadays Europe is a society of multicultural diversity, which needs citizens
who possess linguistic, social, teamwork abilities, who are well informed,
active and open to commitments.
The planned activities for the
project will enable students to develop their linguistic abilities in Romanian
and Spanish languages, to become aware that sustainable development is part of
their present and future, to acquire knowledge regarding the history, culture
and traditions of the two countries, thus reducing xenophobia and
discrimination to the minimum and promoting tolerance to other cultures,
lifestyles, sets of values.
The project also aims at educating
not only students, but the whole school’s staff in the environmental protection
domain, rational usage of energetic resources and to involve them in voluntary
actions in the community. As a result, the two schools will become known in the
community, will gain prestige and will consolidate their European dimension in
school education.
