Education and Civilisations 2008 MALTA
8 - 16 MARCH 2008 Background: Education and Civilisations have been overlapping since ever. Every civilization contributed to the cultural history of the world. Also Education contributed to the creation of modern societies. In the framework of the YOUTH IN ACTION programme this relation is even more stressed. One of its actions, the voluntary service, is not developed as much as it could be.
The educational approaches and attitudes are not identical, not only between both sides of the Mediterranean Sea but also among countries of the same geographical area. The purpose of this course is also to reflect on the influence of civilisations in the educational systems and on the necessary conditions for implementing a qualitative voluntary service project (Action 2) within the Euro-Mediterranean co-operation.
Organisational Frame: This training course is organised in co-operation between SALTO-YOUTH EuroMed Resource Centre and the National Agency for the Youth in Actionprogramme in Malta .
The training course will take place from 8 to 16 March
Working languages will be English and French.
Participation is limited to 30 persons.
