The “TOGETHER WE DREAM” project, co-founded by ICS2 Ferentino (Italy) and Emine Elem Kayacık Secondary School (Türkiye), was successfully implemented between February and May, 2025.
The project brought together 8 schools from 5 countries—Emine Elem Kayacık Secondary School and Akşehir Science and Art Centre (Türkiye), ICS2 Ferentino (Italy), Collège Rouges Barres (France), Ragaine Progymnasium (Lithuania), Butea Secondary School (Romania) in a creative and collaborative journey to explore core European values and citizenship through innovative, AI-powered activities.
Throughout the project, students explored fundamental EU values such as human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law, and human rights. They expressed their insights using tools like AI-assisted mind maps, infographics, cartoons, animations, podcasts, and even co-created a virtual museum in the metaverse. Visits to cultural and historical sites in their local communities helped deepen their understanding of how these values are reflected in real life.
One of the most impactful outcomes was the establishment of an International Virtual Career Talks platform, where students met with 33 professionals from across Europe. These inspiring sessions supported students in exploring their future careers while considering how European values apply in various professions.
The project also featured expert contributions. Notably, Chan Montmeat, a Research Officer at Right Livelihood in Switzerland and a graduate of the Global Campus of Human Rights, led a session on European citizenship and values, encouraging students to think critically and become active, responsible citizens.
To celebrate their efforts, all students were awarded certificates at the end of the project. “TOGETHER WE DREAM” has proven to be a meaningful example of international collaboration and student engagement, showing how digital creativity, intercultural dialogue, and teamwork can bring European values to life
