Transnational Cooperation Activity in Warsaw
From 11th to 15th October 2017 our European Programmes Coordinator had the great chance of participating in a TCA training event in Warsaw (Poland). This event was organized by the Polish National Erasmus + Agency along with other National agencies and gathered participants from five countries (Italy, Poland, Slovakia, Spain and Sweden).
The aim of this Transnational Cooperation Activity was to provide participants with suitable training and to make contacts in order to prepare an excellent Erasmus + project (in particular a KA2 project or Strategic Partnership among schools).
As a result of this activity we were able to reach an agreement to apply for a KA2 Project with partners of the countries above mentioned. This agreement is based on the following points:
Theme: Inclusion, Multiculturalism.
Objectives: Raise awareness of the stereotyped attitudes towards different cultures and values between students (16-18) and teachers.
Increase intercultural understanding.
