WHAT IS IT?

 

Schools for Inclusion is a 14-months Small-scale Partnership in the field of School Education that involves five organisations from four European Union countries (Greece, Portugal, Romania and Spain). The main aim of the project is to improve the tools and methodologies used in secondary schools to educate in values in order to contribute to the social inclusion of ethnic minorities and migrants.

The main objectives of the project are:
‑To improve the key competences of teachers, other professionals and people involved in secondary education so they can educate students in values and promote social inclusion;
‑To exchange experiences, good practices and methodologies between organizations and professionals from four European countries, in order to work on the inclusion of people belonging to ethnic monitories and migrants through educational innovation tools;
‑To facilitate the improvement of the educational quality of the participating schools through the knowledge of new educational tools developed by secondary schools, with the aim of working on education in values for social inclusion;
‑To create a network of organizations, active in the field of school education, that work on inclusion, education in values based on solidarity and empathy for diversity, through educational innovation tools, promoting cooperation between Programme countries.
