The scheme sets up a unique innovative cooperation platform in which the participating countries agree on objectives of common interest.
The projects are designed in common by the participating countries themselves and therefore meet their respective national priorities in the field of citizenship and human rights education.
The outcomes are concrete and available straight after the implementation of the project.
They are used and disseminated in all the participating countries and can impact their respective educational policies in the short term because they were achieved by the participating countries and meet therefore their needs.
