Learn about Us through Culture

There is a need for an EU strategy and methodology for ICD to enable people from these communities:

1. to enter or re-enter the educational sphere;
2. to value their cultural heritage;
3. to innovate LLL opportunities (through strategy and methodology effectively tested in different contexts, thus becoming good practices) adapted to their intercultural learning needs;
4. to encourage social cohesion by improving their interpersonal, intercultural and social competences.

Moreover, the project will show how the development of ICD within European local communities is needed to create an inclusive European identity promoting the common cultural heritage and the importance of cultural diversity. “Understanding the multi-cultural and socio-economic dimensions of European societies and how national cultural identity interacts with the European identity is essential” (Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council on Key competences for lifelong learning).

This is what this research-action proposes to do.
