Throughout the program, there were many live teleconferences with partner schools where

films with related content (life is fine, striped pajamas, etc.) Related UN videos, we've been singing
songs with similar content and more ...

2. Know better the reasons why people migrate or become refugees and the differences
that exist between refugees and immigrants.
3. Observe and compare the behavior of animals and humans on the phenomena of refugee
and immigration.
4. We have created feelings of friendship for refugees and immigrants

are never wars.
