"""No man man is an island entire of itself;every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main""Inspired by the words of J.Donne we've built a PARTNERSHIP formed by geographically and culturally very distant schools, but all united by-a common belonging and European spirit-the desire to educate our students to a truly European and active citizenship-the desire to allow them live and work in an open, collaborative and inclusive dimension We built the project around the idea of Cultural Heritage (year 2018 was dedicated to it) sharing the following OBJECTIVES:-deepen the idea of European citizenship by discovering and promoting our respective cultural heritage-analyse our European multicultural societies and their issues especially about situations impeding inclusion-design educational resources fostering the use of ICT To achieve them we carried out activities that-highlighted the enrichment brought by the cultural heritage of each partner-brought together six regions - very far and different from each other - underlining their specific heritage characteristics-provided opportunity for students to contribute to their community in meaningful way-promoted multilingualism-helped to overcome prejudices-offered learning opportunities that highlighted each student's life and experiences PARTICIPANTSWe reached as many participants as possible, to ensure impact, dissemination and sustainability beyond the duration of the project1. All the students and teachers of the partner schools:-those directly involved in mobilities (onsite and online) and in the planned activities (more than 200)-those not directly involved in the mobilities nor in the activities but interested in the project (more than 2000)2. The educational community as a whole: the teachers who are members of the project also involved other colleagues and staff so that they have always been aware of the activities and could share them with other colleagues in the departments, disseminate them in their classes and benefit from a renewed educational climate3. The local community and any person who was not part of the above groups (including parents of pupils, teachers from other schools, etc.) have always been involved and kept informed of the project thanks to specific dissemination activities Despite the long stop imposed by the pandemic, we've been able to keep the focus on MOBILITY (specific for KA2), thanks also to the extension of the project; we have therefore been able to realise 5 of the 6 planned short mobilities, to complete the 5 LTM in blended mode and to realise also 2 online mobilities, thus involving many more participants than initially planned. METHODOLOGYTo involve all participants we adopted different methodologies, all based on active learning & teaching: PBL, peer learning & tutoring, cascade training. They are the most suitable to involve also all those students and teachers who could not directly participate in mobilities. ACTIVITIESWe have designed a wide range of activities to reach all the planned objectives, cover all the topics and ensure sound collaboration in each step of the project.The ETW PROJECT has been crucial in this respect.Before mobility: collaborative work on the TwinSpace, ice-breaking activities, initial analysis of the topics of heritage and inclusion.During mobility: discovering the peculiarities of the host country; collaborative work in international groups (research, study, debate) to draft the different parts of the final products: international e-magazine, webradio episodes, cross-cultural newscast, multimedia Cultural Heritage Catalogue, debate resolutions. Everything has been realized through a variety of digital tools.After mobility: collaborative work on TwinSpace to deepen and complete the final products; cascade training activities in all schools, dissemination events and synergies with the territory to spread the project among the largest number of people. RESULTSTangible: the products of the different activities Intangible: we measured and evaluated all the skills and attitudes deriving from the achievement of the above mentioned objectives IMPACT AND SUSTAINABILITYParticipants, partner institutions and the wider community could:-deepen the knowledge and understanding of its own and partners' cultural heritage-learn how to face the challenges of the 21st century in their personal and future professional lives with the most suitable tools, to be active and aware European citizens-create effective synergies to address and overcome the identified issues within the educational communities LONG TERM BENEFITSThey will be guaranteed at local, regional, national and international level through the methodological renewal of our schools (impact and sustainability), participation in training and dissemination events and other international projects through the network of contacts that partners are able to reach in their own countries and abroad."
