European Union - is a "union" which consists of small countries and its citizens. The European Union is a multicultural area where includes different religions, traditions, culture and human behaviors. We all have to learn how to collaborate, communicate with each other. We have to create a society that everyone be regardless of their race, religion or culture thus feel united society and community. Recently, European countries and Lithuania are often shown at media channels and we awared of the news about polarization of religions, cultures, ethnic groups. To solve this problem, initially we must establish campaigns, starting from ourselves, our neighbors, whether they belong to our cultural representatives or foreigners. Besides, we must try to understand each other, get to know and tolerate. The main aim of the project - to promote cultural diversity, knowledge, understanding and inter-cultural dialogue between different ethnic and religious groups.
