is crucial, not only for competitiveness, employability and economic prosperity, but also for social inclusion, active
citizenship and the personal fulfilment of people living and working in the knowledge-based economy.

- giving EU Citizens the chance to learn together about Europe and from each other

Marginalised Groups
One of the major issues in the debate about the EU's future development is the key to motivate learning, especially
among marginalised groups of society. Project partners of weReurope and experts will discuss and jointly develop a
European pedagogical strategy to motivate learning by means of culture and art, by inspiring a sense of ownership
through active involvement of learners, and will undertake to devise a strategy for recognition and validation of
non-formal and informal learning as well as strategies for the integration of marginalised groups into Lifelong Learning
processes.

Virtual Carpet of Symbols and Memories
Throughout the duration of the project an inspiring "carpet of symbols and memories" (real and virtual) will be created
to emblematise diversity in unity. All participants of the 5 ICD-Conferences will be asked to bring along an object,
related to one of the neighbouring countries, together with a story in their native language and its translation into English.
However, the virtual carpet is not limited to conference participants alone- we welcome all website visitors to share their
personal picture and story. So do feel invited to check out the existing carpet and
to upload your own contribution.
