Cultural Heritage Classes
This is a European educational programme for
youth from the Secondary School in Sejny. They have an
extended educational curriculum, namely history and culture of
their own region. Knowledge of and respect for past traditions,
curiosity about others living nearby who have different
cultural characteristics (language, faith, mentality), are all
education for tolerance.There are two practical forms of this
project:
- school seminars, meetings with specialists (writers, poets,
journalists, historians, ethnographers)
- and excursions to villages where multiculturalism is still
alive (Vilnius, Transylvania, Polish-Belarussian borderland
villages). They document their meetings with people (keep
diaries, take photos and video film, record conversations).
