This document describes a project between three schools - one each from Albania, Serbia, and Bulgaria. The project aims to connect students from the different schools through international meetings to promote solidarity, intercultural dialogue, and understanding. Students between ages 13-15 from the partner schools will participate in meetings held in each country - Bulgaria in November, Albania in March, and Serbia in April. The goal is for students to make new friends, learn about volunteerism and solidarity, and help break down prejudices between the countries.

3. The idea e project:
The most important aim is of our
project is to connect the diversities in
our mutual struggle to create a firm
foundations for future friendship
through solidarity. Our project will
support the solidarity topic, with every
action we take.Our aim is to learn at
every meeting how nice is to be
humane .

4. Albania-Serbia
We specially focused on the fact that our countries have
frequently been on different sides, that our politicians
have almost never had mutuaL understanding, and that
our schools have never had any form of
cooperation(especially between Serbia and Albania). We
have courageously started this project in order to make
an attempt of breaking prejudices, manage to prove that
mutual actions, free of politics and material interests can
lead to successful and humane cooperation. The main
focus is on students, because they represent the future
that has to be better than the past and they will be able
to create it.

5. Students
• The students will be of similar
age(between 13-15)
• The students have in common the facts
that they live in relatively poor countries,
do not live in big cities and are not used to
living in too much comfort, so we think that
they probabily have similar interests and
problems.

6. Aim of the project
• International cooperation in areas of
education.
• Creating of an intercultural dialogue.
• Participation and equal opportunities for
students.
• Understanding the importance of voluntary
work.
• Improvement of English language in real
situations.

7. Project expectation
• The students will make new friends , find out
about the importance of solidarity and improve
their knowledge about volunteerism. They will
learn to recognize and appreciate mutual work
for free, which result is helping someone in
need. The project participant schools will have
the opportunity and honour to do something that
has never been done by anyone so far.The
society we live in, which is full of prejudices will
be made to, at least, reconsider them, or even
make an attempt of overcoming them, inspired
by positive example.

8. Implementation of the project
• The most cheerful moment for students is
international meeting in 3 partner
countries:
• Intercultural meeting in Bulgaria-
November
• Intercultural meeting in Albania-March
• Intercultural meeting in Serbia- April

mosaic of structures and cultures. We
think, speak, dream, care, dare
otherwise. We are all very different
and this makes us unique. It is this
cultural religious, linguistic, economic,
gives color and meaning of the
contemporary world.
• Dreams of children today – vision
of the future!
