myEUROPE is a Web-based project which aims to help teachers raise their pupils' awareness of what it means to be a young citizen in Europe. It is a network of more than 3600 schools that work together, exchange and share information relating to European themes. In this way they bring the diversity of Europe into the classroom via the Internet, proving that the path to living together in Europe starts at school.
Since its launch in May 2000, the project has focused on European citizenship and intercultural education through on-line activities and classroom practice examples at primary and secondary level. During the past five years, myEUROPE has become one of the largest networks of schools in Europe. It has encouraged contacts between teachers and their classes from Member States, new Member States and Candidate Countries, involving students in collaborative educational projects and activities.
The myEUROPE website provides content in three languages (English, French and German), but contributions to the activities are available in all European languages. The project audience are classes with students from 5 to 20 years old.
