    Objective: The project is part of the Remembrance 2023 program of the EU and the educational actions around the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Europe. It aims to preserve the memory of the victims, the righteous and the resisters to Nazism through actions in 10 European countries. “Europa: Fraternal Lands” is a call to action for all young Europeans and a collaborative learning and sharing tool for all citizens to build a more fraternal and united future, rejecting hate, violence and extremism.

    This project aims to preserve the collective memory of European history, to promote fraternity and solidarity, to encourage intercultural and intergenerational exchanges, and to strengthen active European citizenship. It sets up concrete actions to meet the identified needs, while ensuring gender equality and non-discrimination.

    The project’s actions aim to raise awareness among young Europeans of the values of fraternity and solidarity, recalling the importance of these values in European history. Thanks to the living libraries, complementary events are set up in the 8 countries of the project to allow: 

    The mobilization of major European memory centers on the Second World War, the exodus, the genocide, the Resistance and the construction of a peaceful future in Europe. This will allow young people and citizens to hear testimonies of this period.

    The mobilization of European universities to involve young people in the transmission of testimonies via a “living library” device. This implies the organization of digital communication projects and the creation of a living library to collect the life stories of the Righteous, the victims and the Resistance fighters in each country, as well as public operations to encourage the transmission of the word.

    The creation of communication campaigns on social networks to make the anniversary of the liberation joyful and educational.

    The meeting of the young ambassadors of the European youth in the European Parliament to discuss the lessons
