What is the idea behind the Mondialogo School Contest?
In the Mondialogo School Contest we are encouraging school students worldwide to form project groups, which will be supervised by a teacher. In an exchange with students from a partner school from another continent they will develop project work on the topic of intercultural dialogue. During the project phase, all participants are encouraged to create new bonds and even forge new friendships. Participants are intended to learn the importance of openness, respect, tolerance and mutual understanding as prerequisites for living together in peace. The task calls on students to become involved with the cultural identity and heritage within their own group, to explore new forms of cultural expression and to engage in an active dialogue with the students of their partner school.
