ERASMUS+ KA1 MOBILITY TO SEVILLE 2019



Eleni Despotidou, a member of the Pedagogical Group of the Vamos Environmental Education Center, completed the first Erasmus + mobility in Seville, Spain. Erasmus + Project Title: "Nature and Culture as Tools for Intercultural Education" approved by S.S.F. (State Scholarships Foundation) under programme code: 2019-1-EL01-KA104-062085. This move was made in the context of training members of the Vamos E.E.C.  Pedagogical Team on innovative teaching methods so as to incorporate new tools and techniques into the EEC curricula.
The Chain Foundation's ‘Las Otras Orillas’ programme refers to the links between the city of Seville and North Africa and the New World (America). Visits to archaeological excavations, monuments, cathedrals, synagogues, mosques, palaces, cemeteries, in the Castle of the Inquisition in Seville, Cordoba, Tarifa, Cadiz, Bailo Claudia and other places.
During the programme there was an onsite observation and study on the shaping of the culture and architecture of the area in contact with different cultures (Phoenicians, Romans, Visigoths, Arabs / Mauritanians) and religions (Christian, Muslim, Jewism) combined with trade, discoveries and more. References have been made through poetry and arts related to immigration through time.
All in the light of the constant movement and exchange of populations to and from Europe - immigration, refugees, exploratory expeditions.
