citizens.

The role of young people in
the new world order is very
important.
We need shared experiences
like the one you are building
in this Erasmus plus project
in order to change our world
somewhat.
12. 12
We need teachers who want to
accompany these students in a
European training programme and
bring their connections to a good
cause.
I am sure that the work you will do
in this “Save water, Save life" project
will be very advantageous for you,
for the educational centers that we
are part of, and for the sake of
European citizenship.
