buildings, statues, memorial sites. We selected stories those carry messages
about citizenship and culture. However, it is up to you, to put the story
together!
II. An
intercultural-ecological topic to look into
When it
comes to European citizenship, a central question is: how can we, citizens
enrich each other’s culture? (instead of destroying each other..) There are
