The idea for the project comes at a time when 'certainties' are being shaken. Never before have St Exupéry's words: 'Nous n' héritons pas la terre de nos ancêtres, nous l' empruntons à nos enfants', felt so vital. Young people are worried about their future and a movement to demand change is growing. In this context, with our partnership of schools from six countries we want students to learn about, to appreciate and come to actively care for all cultural, natural and historical heritage. Our shared democratic values can also be seen as common cultural heritage. Discovering and reflecting on these values, their origins and the ways they are threatened, students will develop a sense of responsibility and active citizenship that is needed to cope with big European problems, like climate change and populism. Students come to understand the concept of heritage and learn about their own and each other's heritage – cultural, natural, democratic values. The project fosters students' concern for the threat to heritage caused by human pressure, neglect, decay and climate change. Heritage is not renewable, it must be protected. English will be the language of communication for all.Over 500 students aged 12-16 in six partner school are involved for each year of the project. Each school has 2-4 referent teachers, as well as teachers of subjects like Geography, History, Religion, European languages, Science, Biology, Ethics and Art. Project 'homework' is done in regular lessons.Referent teachers will attend all 4 LTTA meetings and both join short-term staff events. At least four students from each school will attend LTTA meetings, 'ambassadors' bringing all the 'homework' of project students. After our previous Erasmus+ partnership about migration, with the same schools (only Hungary has left and Poland joined), where we worked on respect and understanding for people from other cultures, we are very motivated to continue this successful cooperation.Over the two years we will work on four types of heritage, the topics of our LTTA meetings:- Cultural heritage, buildings of historical/cultural significance (Italy, Venice))- Natural heritage, National Parks, traditions (Romania, the Danube delta) - Industrial heritage and development (Germany, the Ruhr area, Poland, the coal mines) - Democratic values (Poland)The online thematic Story Map is used to collect and connect all information.The timeless calendar will be an ongoing creative projectThe video template will become videos on heritageDuring the LTTA meetings students gather, organise and present their data. Excursions are a hands-on experience related to the research.Students reflect on the importance and the vulnerability of human rights in our society, discover what generates populism, racism, anti-European ideas. Thus they will take a new step towards active European citizenship.To make a change in students' attitudes, schools must collaborate closely to make every-day teaching and learning exciting, involving, innovative and incisive. In regular lessons project. In contact with their European peers, students prepare the topic for the next meeting doing on-line research, digital organisation of all material, videoconferences, using the eTwinning platform and Story Map, preparing material needed to gradually create meaningful project final products: the video template, the timeless calendar. Meanwhile teachers will document the project Lesson Plans for the Teachers' Handbook. Results, impact, longterm benefits:- Teachers Handbook with project ‘Lesson Plans’, possibly shared by our eTwinning Label partner, Romania- non-project teachers integrate project-related topics and collaborative learning methods into their curricular lessons - Introduction of digital tools in teaching/learning (eTwinning, StoryMap, padlet, digital timelines & mindmaps, webquests, G-suite tools, zoom) - Students sense of active European citizenship and an awareness of the importance of democracy- Improved English language and communication skills- The project website and eTwinning, the youtube channel and social media accounts facilitate intercultural exchange and dissemination.- Participation Certificates validate learning- Students develop their own reasoned opinions on topics like the European Green Deal and the UNFCCC COP meetings. - The timeless calendar will be used year after year. - The videos made with the video template promote and protect a kind of heritageThanks to their improved understanding of heritage and their exposure to people, movements, institutions who actively promote & defend heritage, students will look for ways to unite with others to protect their future.This meets the mission and vision of all participating schools.Once the project is over, project teachers and students will continue their partnerships in different ways: class exchanges, eTwinning projects, social media and maybe even a new KA2 project proposal.
