What is Crowddreaming?
Crowddreaming is a project Erasmus+, approved in 2018 under the KA3 annual call on Social Inclusion and Common Values: Contribution in the Field of Education and Training.
The aim of the project is to disseminate and expand at European level a good practice in the field of enhancement of digital cultural heritage as a means for inclusive education and for the promotion of European values among young people.
The good practice identified is "Crowddreaming: young people co-create digital culture", born as a competition for schools and promoted by the Italian association Stati Generali dell'Innovazione, whose objective is create a lasting digital monument dedicated to Europe as a transcultural laboratory.
Crowddreaming involves 5 partners from 5 European countries. The pilot action will be implemented in 4 countries (Latvia, Croatia, Greece and Italy) and will directly concern secondary school teachers (20 in each country) and students (400 in each country).
