According to the project topic, we want to cooperate with schools with various experience in EU projects and different competencies in the field of recycling. We know from experience that the challenge of diversity produces the most valuable results and it’s good to learn both from more experienced but also from inexperienced, who always bring very fresh and mind-opening ideas.

Firstly, it is important to have partners in richer countries, that have been in the EU for a long time, but also in poorer countries, which joined the EU quite recently, or the candidates to the EU.

We are six partners from all corners of Europe – from north, south, west, east and centre, and also Catholic, Protestant, Muslim and Orthodox countries, schools from big cities, towns and villages, small or big schools, in our team there are both state and private schools - to promote inclusion.  

One partner has an eTwinning label and one has applied for it this year. According to the benefits of the recycling facilities in the area or the enviro-protection associations, one of the criteria to choose schools was the choice according to the benefits they will add to the project.
