The project Community School Museums-COSMUS seeks to value the European cultural heritage, as a central element of diversity and intercultural dialogue; to establish strategic and virtuous interactions, between school, knowledge and education, Community, social, territorial and economic development, and the school Museum, memories, identities, territories, for the reinvention of the world, in the way of learning to know and know how to live together, in a perspective of global citizenship.The main objectives are:To develop strategies of social integration, of intercultural understanding, of a sense of belonging, of valuing people, in the contexts of school, community and city.To promote formal and non-formal learning processes, transversal skills, digital literacy, ICT and multimedia, communication, original and foreign languages, social and civic, capacity of initiative and entrepreneurship, Cultural, aesthetic and artistic environments.To satisfy the needs of training and learning of teachers and pupils, in a meaningful way, at the level of the flexible transversal approach of the curriculum, through collaborative work, as a team, sharing and building knowledge, independently and responsible, in a logic of innovation, creativity and problem solving.The partnership involvers ten institutions (1 Academy, 1 Teacher’s Training Center, 2 Associations and 6 Schools). Six school partners work with a team of 50 students and 10 teachers and 100 families. In addition, it also carefully distributes 36 students with special educational needs and 10 community stakeholders, with an initial universe of 1100 people coming from school and community.The participants are selected, according to criteria and profiles previously defined, by the partners like: gender equality, incentive for the participation of motivated students, with low social formation, handicapped, migrants, in difficulty of early school dropout, failure, and those who face social or religious problems or other type of exclusion. The project will be developed using design methodologies, interdisciplinary, innovative, sustainable development, team-based work, research-action and reflection processes, with flexible approaches to the complexity of themes and problems, through communities of learning and practice, knowledge building, critical sense, and the involvement and participation of the educational community.Reference activities are competitions, content production, intellectual outputs, training and learning, a festival, exhibitions, transnational meetings and a multiplier event.From these activities we expect to obtain several results, tangible and intangible that will last long after the project ending. Some of those tangible results are specific contents (Tales, songs, poetry, Life Reports, Films, Chronicles...) developed within the framework of the dynamics of Community museums of European partners; a toolkit to build a community museum in schools or a collaborative, an e-book with descriptive description of the project and an interactive digital platform. As intangible results we highlight the improvement of teachers and students’ skills on communication, digital, language and creativity skills, debate and critical thinking, cooperation, sustainable development; the awareness of the world and its potential for transformation through an intercultural consciousness; the valuing mobility of people on a planetary scale, in the interaction and inclusion of diverse ethnic-cultural groups, different in their language, religion, customs and traditions; the respect for cultural diversity; contribution to a more humane and meaningful education that respects the diversity of the school and educational community; a processes of change, focusing on the reflection component on the communities that live and interact in the school, in the collaborative resolution of problems and in partnerships with the educational community; Encourage awareness and development of appropriate and contextualised activities in the European dimension.The expected impact is significant at the level of the direct participants involved: teachers, students, community, European project partners, but also on the families, and citizens of the city, whose heritage and cultural contribution is recognized and magnifies the impact of the projectIt is expected to duplicate the universe of direct and indirect participants in the course of the project. The benefits of the project in the short, medium and long term are very significant, by the innovation dimension contained and mobilized by the different connections of the project, the methods, the potential of the networks and partnerships, the objectives and products to be developed.The construction of a Community school museum and related intellectual production are innovative in the educational, social, and cultural sector, inspiring the creation of memories, identities and diversification, in the heart of COSMUS.
