This project has a great logo

The logo has been chosen through an online survey or vote using the platform menti.com. Each country submitted a drawing. A total of 457 votes were cast. The drawings did not lack the flags of the six countries. The two most voted drawings were those representing the six countries as electrons around a nucleus. The one presented by Greece won. Indeed, it is more than well chosen. A logo built from the facade of the Parthenon, the great architectural gem of the city-state where democracy was born. The flags of the project's member countries are among the columns.

The democratic values that we will work with the students starting from the next mobility in Sfantu Gheorghe, Romania, are very well represented under the frieze of the Parthenon. The logo elaborated by the team from Greece achieved victory with a close result of one vote. 130 vs 129 votes.

The Parthenon: a former temple dedicated to the goddess Athena, built in the fifth century BC on the Athenian Acropolis. Its decorative sculptures are considered some of the masterpieces of classical Greece as well as of global art and the monument itself consists of an enduring symbol of  Democracy and the values of Western Civilization.

Location: Atenas, Grecia

Knin: Last Day, First Tears

Image
On Friday, October 11, 2024, the sun rose cheerfully over Knin, just like the participants in the K220 Erasmus Project: "The New Values of Democracy in Today's Europe." Five days allowed for many experiences and emotions. Otherwise, while packing up the feelings and belongings a few tears. Nevertheless, the group’s fifth day in Croatia promised to be interesting. The group was split: students in one class and teachers in another. Professors Mirela Jelovina and Nikilina Grizelj led a recycling workshop. Each national team had to create a gift for the school and the teachers, using recycled materials under the guidance of the students. The result was spectacular, fun, and hugely creative—small and medium-sized bags with striking colors, elegant designs, and fantastic closures. On the other hand, teachers created a frame of recycled materials with photographs and selfies of the group from different moments during their stay in Knin. It was a fun project. The accurate hands o

Knin: A History Lesson to Learn and Never Forget

Image
Wednesday, the third day of Croatian mobility for the K220 Erasmus Project: "The New Values of Democracy in Today's Europe." The entire morning was a true history lesson. First, we climbed the ramps leading to the Knin Fortress, a small walled city perched on a hill that once served as the palace of the ancient Croatian king Dmitar Zvonimir during the Middle Ages. This fortress on Mount Spas is one of the largest defensive structures from ancient Dalmatia and the best-preserved in Croatia. Today, the site houses one of the top restaurants in the area. It is also home to an art exhibition that we eagerly explored. The history teacher and guide of the excursion, Goran Mrnjavac, passionately explained the most important aspects of the site. We also viewed a retrospective exhibition of the events that marked this place and its inhabitants in the 1990s. The fortress became a coveted location after the disintegration of Yugoslavia. Operation Storm ended Serbia’s aspiration to o

Sibenik: Waking Up Early Was Worth It

Image
A popular saying goes, “The early bird catches the worm,” and something similar happened on the second day of the Croatian stay for the K220 Erasmus Project: “The New Values of Democracy in Today's Europe.” Participants woke up early to travel by bus to Sibenik, the birthplace of a basketball deity, Drazen Petrovic. From its port, we embarked on a trip to the island of Privic, where we visited the museum dedicated to Croatian Renaissance humanist and scientist Faust Vrancic. During the Venetian period in the second half of the 16th century, the Sibenik-born scientist invented many devices, such as the parachute. The exhibition of his inventions was exciting. Afterward, we traveled to Zlarin, an island known for its red corals and plastic-free policy. There, we visited the National Coral Museum. During the boat ride, we admired the natural beauty of the small islands near Croatia’s mainland. We passed through the city’s natural defensive canal on the return boat trip. The students t
