Why international school projects?

Working together towards a common goal, broadening horizons and gaining intercultural experience – cross-border school projects offer teachers* and students* the unique opportunity to develop a variety of skills and competencies and to broaden the perspectives of their normal learning and working lives. This opening of the learning and school context is very inspiring and enriching for all involved.
