The project objectives have been shaped gradually : initially it was clear that we wanted to raise student awareness to initiatives and environmental policies, discover and introduce them to these procedures at European level. But knowing that the Saint-Genes institution already stressed this awareness, we wanted to add something more concrete, something to make these ecological processes palpable, playful and creative: we thus decided to consider a series of artistic activities related to our main theme. By associating a creative aspect to our approach to environmental awareness we want to make the students actors by practicing the data they have gathered during their research phase. Artistic activities also enable participants to renew their perspective on materials and articles that are usually seen in their strict use value; they will be in a situation of manipulation, obliged to consider these objects in their plastic, poetic and material characteristics. Finally, this artistic project will allow them to demystify some contemporary artistic approaches often considered obscure or elitist (the involvement of a local artist in the planned activities will strengthen this latter objective). Each participating institution has a strong political and environmental awareness ; they will have no trouble feeding the project in terms of activities, tours, workshops and interventions. Our Europeans partners are: The Gimnazija In Srednja Sola Kocevje Kocevje in Slovenia, Ek Kalamarias in Thessaloniki, Greece, Istituto Istruzione Superior Verona Trento in Messina Italy II Liceum Im ogólnokształcące. Wis. Broniewskiego to Kosalin Poland, Ibrahim Özaydin Mesleki ve Teknik Anadolu Lisesi in Arnavutkoy in Turkey. Planned activities can be divided into two main parts. The first year, we plan discovery activities, for addressing the central themes of our project while socializing with our partners. Two important phases of research and information gathering are planned: learn, at European and local level, on the policies, practices and organizations involved in an environmental project. These information will be put it in form, presented and shared between partners; which implies several "sub-activities" from students and teachers: selection of collected data, choice of display device, upload on line, creating a platform, regularly updated information. During this first year, the intervention of an artist from Bordeaux will lay the foundations for the creation of the final artistic product. This intervention will be capture on video, edited and posted on our facebook common platform. Planned artistic achievements are designed from recycled items and are essentially collaborative: the final object will consist of fragments individually made by each partner, the combination of these at the last meeting in Bordeaux will bring the sculpture as a whole. Finally a traveling exhibition project is scheduled for the end of the project: each partner will have the task of organizing an exhibition in his establishment to disseminate the contents of the project. We could consider, with our experience in the last Comenius project in which we participated, the importance of dissemination and visibility of the project. Thus, as part of a project whose humanistic values are important to us, we wanted to consider early on a strategy to develop a visible collaborative and important work. Our contacts with some local and regional press organizations support this dissemination strategy. Planning a traveling exhibition will support this broadcast within schools so that teachers, students and any other person can give evidence of the wealth of such a European project.
