Peace and respect to diversity are core value of the European Union and fundamental to the development of the individual and to ensuring social cohesion and societal wellfare. The project places great emphasis on the acquisition of the positive, life affirming values European citizenship encompasses, such as respect for human rights, tolerance, active non-violence, cooperation and social responsibility. The project’s main goal is to promote empowerment, participation, active citizenship and social cohesion, with main focus on disadvantaged youth and young people at risk of exclusion, as it places great emphasis on the acquisition of the positive, life affirming values European citizenship encompasses, such as respect, tolerance, active non-violence, cooperation and social responsibility. The project focused on fostering specific individual attitudes and behaviors, such as trust, respect for others, confidence in the causal relationship of individual effort - personal success and fulfillment – societal welfare, thus empowering young people and promoting inclusive education and social cohesion and tolerance. Our objective was to create a toolbox, with pedagogical materials, promoting a cross-curricular approach to European Values education, thus promoting increased cross–disciplinary and cross-cultural collaboration on developing appropriate training methodologies and agreeing specific learning outcomes.

The most important results achieved during the project are the following: 1. The Learning matrix which completed in depth analysis of the current state of the art in partner countries, consulted the views of teachers, school administrators and students in the issues subject to the project, and finalizes the methodological framework of the educational programme, encompassing the awareness - knowledge - skill dimensions, as well as content, quality and combination of approaches, tools and media to be used in adressing each of the above stated dimensions of learning . 2. EVER Training Course which can be considered the main output of the project and is composed of 6 learning modules encompassing topics such as citizens and human rights, democracy and dictatorships, unity and division, European union and European integration. 3 A multilingual educational web platform was created, open for contributions from the public. It serves multiple purposes: - Official web page for the project; - An educational resource, containing the guidelines to the approach implemented in the project’s training, the methodology, the training program, the results and the analysis of the results achieved by the series of trainings; - a communication platform for intercultural communication and exchange of good practices - an e-library containing useful links and resources related to transversal skills and competences learning and teaching 4. A training kit containing the two training resources(course for students and teachers guide) that were produced in both printable and electronic form, in order to allow large use of the training methodology, and equip youth workers and trainers with the necessary tools and approaches to implement it. 5. A C1 international training event for teachers youth workers was also implemented in order to directly train target group representatives from one side, and to monitor, evaluate and improve the methodology with regards to the results achieved during the trainings, and the participants feedback. . The tools and approaches that were developed and used during the project provided teachers with a coherent but multifaceted methodology of raising awareness on important issues, active learning and generation of new knowledge through interactive exchange, and practical demonstration and application of the latter. Thus the project equipped teachers with competences and methods needed for transferring the common fundamental values of our society particularly to the hard to reach young people and to prevent social isolation.
