We have reached the end of our project, and we are proud to present our final work!
Four international teams, made up of Turkish, Italian and Portuguese students, created a series of podcast interviews exploring a range of topics related to Citizenship.
We now invite our audience to watch the videos and discover the experiences and perspectives shared by participants from each of the three countries (see links below).
As we bring this journey to a close, we do so with a touch of nostalgia, but also with the conviction that we have made a small contribution towards building a more active, aware and engaged school community.
We hope to continue counting on your interest and support in the future projects we plan to develop.
See you again soon!

How can young people balance taking responsibility for their future while still enjoying the present?
That was the main question we asked the Coordinator of the Psychology and Guidance Office at the D. Sancho I School Group.
Her answer is truly insightful, so be sure to join us for another episode of our podcast.
