eTwinning award for ‘Cultural Heritage’

During 2018, Europe will celebrate its cultural heritage by raising awareness and encouraging debate and dialogue. eTwinning strongly believes that cultural heritage unites diverse communities all over Europe and builds shared understanding of our towns and cities. Therefore, in 2018, the European Commission will sponsor the eTwinning Award for Cultural Heritage for projects dealing specifically with this topic. Winning teachers will be awarded in the occasion of a special celebration for Cultural Heritage taking place during the Austrian EU Presidency, in December 2018.

eTwinning School Label

Only a month ago, in December 2017, we launched the eTwinning School Label with the aim to recognise and appreciate the involvement, commitment and dedication of eTwinners, teams of teachers and school leaders within the same school. Since then, over 2900 schools passed Stage 1. The application period will continue to run until mid-March and an update will be sent out in February regarding the applications in progress or already completed.
