There are many elements that make up the national culture. Folk songs are one of the most important elements of our
cultural heritage. They are the identifications and representations of dreams, joys, sorrows, and history of a society.
Based on the universal power of music, our project is shaped by the belief that we can come together under the umbrella of folk songs to create a strong link between different cultures and a substantial idea of European citizenship.
As a result of the rapid development of technology, an industrialized, mechanized model of society emerges, and in this
structure a mechanized youth grows. It is seen that these young people cannot analyze social problems and cannot
connect with society. They are indifferent to all cultural values and heritage. We have developed our project with the
need to introduce cultural values to these young people who are in a tendency to disappear in the virtual world. We aim
to make them aware of cultural richness of European countries, notice the differences and respect them; underline the similarities and acquire a sense of being a member of a big European family.
In determining the subject of our project, we have discussed it with potential partners by means of eTwinning and
Schooleducationgateway. We then decided upon the methodology , activities, participants, quality of properties of
participants, targeted results in short and long terms and all kinds of outputs.
We are 5 countries, Italy (coordinator) , Romania, Turkey, Portugal and Croatia.The participants are the students,
teachers and administrative staff of all the schools. Our students are in the 14-18 age range. Families, non-governmental
organizations, institutions and organizations, local governments and local communities will be included in the project
activities.
The cultural value of folk songs, the stories that lie behind the songs, folk songs by the regions, folk music instruments,
folk song artists, folk dances and local clothes are the main topics to be covered in the activities. A book will be prepared
that includes some folk songs of each partner, the stories behind them, the lyrics in native language and in English.
