Why such a topic for the project?

Learning from the Past to Face the Future: Cultural Heritage in Contrast with Modern Society.

Year 2018 has been acclaimed the European Year of Cultural Heritage. Consequently, we will celebrate diverse cultural heritage across Europe - nationally, regionally and locally. The aim of this year is to encourage more people to discover and engage with Europe's cultural heritage, and to reinforce a sense of belonging to a common European space. The slogan for the year is: Our heritage: where the past meets the future. We, partners of the project, desire to make it the main theme of our cooperation.

Cultural heritage has a universal value for us: individuals, communities and societies. In our project we will search for expressive ways to celebrate and preserve it. For Poland it is also the Independence Year which will make a value to the agenda.

Such a subject is vital for the six European partners of because they encounter similar obstacles while educating their students. Pupils lack motivation to gaining knowledge in history, art and culture. They question traditional authorities and cease to follow the role models. They overuse social media and new technologies. Thanks to participation in the project on cultural heritage the subjects, neglected now, will be made relevant and meaningful for students. This experience will boost learning process and internal development.
