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

After much preparation and some preparatory video conferences, and after a great effort from the teaching team of Colegio Mijael Viteano (Maria, Dana, and Ionella), the day of the inaugural celebration arrived. It was time to meet the entire group of students who will participate in the first mobility of Erasmus Project K220 "The New Values of Democracy for Today's Europe". The weekend served for the reception of the different teams. Firstly, the Spanish arrived on Saturday afternoon, followed by the Croatians in the evening, and on Sunday, the Portuguese, Greeks, and Poles arrived.

Visit to Bran Castle and unforgettable closing dinner

Image
On Thursday, the day began with a bus excursion to Brasov. Due to rushing out, before the appointed time, we accidentally left Panos and Pantelis behind, who arrived punctually at the bus. We had to turn back for the Greek teachers. Near Brasov is Bran Castle (in Romanian Castelul Bran). It is a medieval fortress built by the Teutonic Knights atop a hill and accessed by a ramp. It is on the border between Transylvania and Wallachia. The castle is famous for the belief that it was the home of Vlad Draculea (Vlad III the Impaler) in the 15th century. The kind guide explained to us that at the end of World War I when Transylvania passed to the Kingdom of Romania, the Brasov city council gave the castle to Regina Maria. Currently, the castle has become the tourist hub of the area due to the appeal of the history linked to Bram Stoker's novel. With the kind company of our Romanian colleagues Edmond Dorneanu and Bianca Stupu, we saw different rooms of the Hungarian qu

How necessary it is to work face to face, shoulder to shoulder! The interpersonal closeness of collective work is crucial for a project like ours to function. The K220 Project: The New Values of Democracy in Today’s Europe started timidly in the preparatory video conferences for the first physical meeting. In Madeira, a welcoming island with stunning views and landscapes, we held the first in-person meeting of the team of teachers who will manage the project.
