Heritage for tomorrow - from understanding to enjoyment

 

 

Theme:

The title of the project „Heritage for tomorrow – from understanding to enjoyment“ emerges from its main motivation and objectives: to lead young people to understanding that we cannot neglect the power of history and its heritage in the modern times because the identity, social and cultural origin of
each nation have their roots in a distant history.
One of the foundation stones of the European community is the ancient Rome, whose heritage is found in the EU countries in various fields nowadays. It exemplifies the fact that history helps understand the present, that cultural heritage connects nations and builds the future. After we realise that, we will value and enjoy it. We would like students to consider the need to respect the world, European as well as national heritage and become aware of the fact that each generation ́s mission is to protect and preserve cultural heritage for future generations.
