The project History and its Effects of today’s Youth (HEY) is based on the idea that understanding history is crucial to developing a united Europe. Our vision is to create a common understanding of how wars and conflicts, extremist views and migration issues have a reciprocal effect, and look at how these factors challenge the way we teach history to our students. Each country has its own dramatic past that shapes how history is taught in classrooms. The partner schools in HEY is selected based on a desire to bringing a broad range of historical events into the project. Experience in former Erasmus+ projects and eTwinning are other desired qualifications.
