Steps towards European Integration

The primary aim of the project is to raise students´ awareness towards different cultures and customs within Europe.

In order to do this we intend to:
• make the young people more tolerant of the differences and point out the similarities within different cultures
• induce them to think and to analyze these similarities and differences
• develop a broader, more open attitude overcoming prejudices and crossing race divide
• thus we aim to broaden the young people´s horizon and make them more tolerant of their fellow European citizens
• encourage students to commit themselves to peaceful and willing acceptance of the others.

The second aim is to facilitate and encourage young people´s mobility in Europe.

• We will achieve this by analyzing and comparing experiences and situations of young people studying in different countries.
• Furthermore we intend to come up with some valuable advice to the relevant institutions in the respective countries.
