This project did not shy away from difficult themes, we brought together people of different faiths, different cultures, different cultural heritages and encouraged dialogue. Students were encouraged to ask difficult questions regarding identity, philosophy and experiences. In doing so, the project aim was to bring together groups who otherwise may view each other with distrust. The Erasmus project was enriched by E Twinning because it allowed us to include schools from Serbia who were not part of the Erasmus KA2 programme, it allowed us to include additional schools from our own regions with differing social and ethnic demographics, it allowed us to include schools from communities which were divided. E Twinning also allowed participation from partners on a casual basis.
