In partner schools and other countries around Europe, learning about human values is a popular topic because we live in a world where people have started to lose their values: they are becoming more isolated, self-centered, cruel, intolerant and violence and cruelty are increasing rapidly. We want to take action on this social matter as responsible people.
In this project students will research their cultural elements with values in mind, they will transfer those cultural elements to other students from the partner countries by using digital materials, creating videos, acting , via competitions, etc. They will become aware of social norms, of customs and traditions in partner countries, understand and become aware of the importance of values for a better future. Our students will be motivated to become socially active and responsible citizens, to make new friends, improve their ICT and language skills, understand the policy, targets, and legal bodies of the EU. Good communication, good cooperation, planning and a strong sound management will be the key factors for success in this project.
In the long run, we hope to create better citizens and human beings for the future, to create in our surroundings an atmosphere where the values in education have importance and even are a permanent part of regular curriculum, to create a better, more tolerable, more generous, more peaceful society. To sum up, in a world where generation gap, social isolation, violence, intolerence, self-centered life, cruelty, etc. are increasing rapidly, Culture Covers Values is a project ERASMUS+ project (No. KA229 aiming at helping to transmit intercultural values of Europe and make new generations be aware of their positive cultural elements and values that are needed for a better world..
