"Premise: This project is aimed at students aged between 9 and 13 who live in situations of disadvantage and aims to build a path that can support students with particular fragility, enhancing the contribution of creativity and the active participation of the students, in optics to transform the school into an original laboratory of inclusive culture, which can open up to different territories to build educating communities, engaged in the search for an authentic experience of dialogue and educational cooperation. To do this we decided to use food and gastronomic traditions as a common thread. The food understood as knowledge of its history and traditions but also as knowledge of the stories and traditions of other countries, to find in diversity the similarities that there are among the peoples and that eventually unite us. Food as a universal and primary right. The banquets that have always sealed a peace, a friendship, a good togetherness and that are an example of brotherhood. The food so well represented in art from 1600 to Warhol. Food also as eco-sustainability and respect for ourselves and our planet. Recipes for discovering algorithms and computational thinking but also for talking about the Convention on the Rights of Children, which are the 30th anniversary of this year's signature, especially talking about: Right to Equality; Right to respect for one's own identity; Right to health; Right to study; Right to play and express one's creativity; Carrying out the planned activities will lead us to talk about the sustainable development objectives of the Agenda 2030 and to work on several of the 17 points. The idea of our project comes from the eTwinning project: ""Look! I love cook"" (id 173213). We have had contacts with various partners and the choice fell on those who face similar problems and seek different and effective solutions to the problems of students in disadvantaged situations. With the school of Agios Nikolaos we worked on this project and we noticed the positive response that the pupils gave to the planned activities and how these were a good opportunity to raise awareness of other cultures and overcome barriers and distrust. This project has given us the opportunity to talk about the differences and the fear that an unknown thing or culture can provoke and the importance of knowing to overcome diffidence and spread a culture of acceptance and equality. Main objectives: Countering the phenomenon of early school leaving; Supporting pupils in acquiring and developing basic skills and key European skills; Promote the culture of inclusion Specific objectives: Development of skills in the field of active and democratic citizenship and of the sense of belonging and citizenship, not only national but also and above all European, through the enhancement of intercultural education, respect for differences and dialogue between cultures, the support of assumption of responsibility, as well as solidarity and care for common goods and awareness of rights and duties. The aim of the project is to help grow individuals who feel part of the society they live in and who perceive themselves as key individuals for the growth and development of our society. Number of participants: The project involves 30 students ""Ambassadors"" who are those who will participate in international exchanges but developing the project also on eTwinning the pupils involved overall, in addition to the ""ambassadors"" will be about 200. They will be students who present disadvantage (economic, linguistic, cultural) or at risk of early school leaving, capable of autonomy and collaboration and that would have no other opportunities than those provided to them by the school. Description of activities Through the development of this project there will be various activities in collaboration and sharing, including: Realization of a ""Multilingual Dictionary of Survival to the Erasmus Project""; creation of works related to food with the technique of pixel art; creation of a cookbook with recipes from the participating countries; opening a blog and a facebook page of the project; video conferencing; presence activities during exchanges aimed at encouraging socialization among pupils and understanding of other cultures. Description of the expected results Among the concrete results that we want to achieve there are the contrast to the scholastic dispersion, involving both the pupils and their families who live in disadvantaged situations and who would not have other opportunities for exchange and knowledge; the improvement of skills in schools and an increase in digital citizenship skills."
