The overall objective is to promote a better understanding, both in general education and vocational training, of the European Union and the functioning of its Institutions and to address the widespread lack of knowledge of
the European Union and a lot of disinformation, these in turn increase people’s disenchantment about the Union and
its policies.
Learning about the objectives and the functioning of the European Union is an important part of promoting active
citizenship and the common values of freedom, tolerance and non-discrimination.
Teachers and trainers are keen to engage in opportunities for their own professional development; a significant number
of teachers express the need to expand their competences for developing an inclusive classroom atmosphere using
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), and teaching in multilingual and multicultural classrooms. They
also need opportunities for professional expansion regarding the European dimension of teaching at school, in
particular on teaching about the European Union in engaging ways.
Maximum EU contribution per project is €300,000.
The consortium must include: at least 4 schools and/or VET providers (ISCED 1 – 4) ; maximum 2 higher education institutions providing initial and/or in-service training to teachers of schools and/or VET institution.
Affiliated entities do not count towards the minimum eligibility criteria for the consortium composition.
