"European Generation Link"

2006 – 2008. EU Socrates programme – Grundtvig 1. Project coordinator - BEST Training, Vienna, Austria.

The main product of the project will be a web-based platform that contains interviews, pictures, videos of people who during their lifetime have lived in more than one European country. Europe here is treated more in geographical than political terms. This project will help to understand historical background and provide reflections on situations and experiences of these people. The aim of the project is to promote tolerance and fight xenophobia, as well as to promote European citizenship.
The beneficiaries of this project will be, apart from individual users, national and European programmes and initiatives that promote adult citizens’ awareness of Europe, intergenerational learning and provide measures to increase tolerance and to reduce prejudices and xenophobia.
