We are excited to announce the opportunity for teachers, educators and youth workers from Europe, Middle East & North Africa (MENA) and Eastern Partnership countries to submit their own original lesson, workshop or activity plans for a single (45 minutes) or a double session (90 minutes).
The activity plans should focus on one or more of the JustNow central themes, i.e. human rights education, international criminal law, refugees and migration, contemporary social issues such as LGBTQIA+ rights, women's rights, climate change activism, extremism, polarisation, media education (media literacy, countering disinformation, digital safeguarding). All materials should be prepared in a blended- learning format, i.e. allowing for their implementation in both the offline and online context.

The new school year has just knocked on our door, and we are still reminiscing about the wonderful moments from our holiday in Krzyżowa. 🥰
From 13-20 August, the Polish-German-Ukrainian project "Art without borders" took place, which continues the Krzyzowa tradition of an art summer for children and young people.
This year the project was carried out in cooperation with Старочуднівськогутянський ОЗЗСО, с. Старочуднівська Гута, Романівського району and EJF gemeinnützige AG, Kinder - und Jugendhilfeverbund "Schloss Wartenburg".
We invite you to visit www.year1990.eu, which presents the events of the breakthrough year 1990 in the Central and Eastern European countries.
The year 1990 was a turning point in overcoming the communist legacy and shaping democracy in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. In most of them, it brought the first completely free parliamentary, presidential and local government elections.
The year 1990 also marked the reunification of both German states. For the Baltic states, such as Lithuania - the first country in the region to declare its independence after 50 years of dependence on Soviet power - it was the beginning of a new era.
