The third HEDA transnational meeting took place in Rome, Italy on 14 - 15 September 2023. The meeting included all project partners and was arranged by Galileo. Main focus for the meeting was on teacher training activities, impact assessment and e-learning course, as well as on general project management and dissemination activities. The HEDA Project proposes the introduction of art for the improvement of citizenship education in Europe, fact which will allow on the one hand to enhance the acquisition of social and civic competences, to foster knowledge, understanding and ownership of values and fundamental rights and on the other hand to enhance critical thinking among students and teachers. The HEDA project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.

From Bertolt Brecht to Coolio and from Euripides to the Icelandic Sagas.

How we can teach citizenship education, democracy and human rights through the use of theatre and arts? A wonderful 4-day seminar organised in the framework of the HEDA project was completed in the Topos Allou Theatre in Athens with the participation of teachers and people working in the theatre from the six project partner countries (Greece, Iceland, Italy, Belgium, Poland and Serbia).

​In the framework of the seminar, the participants learned theatre techniques and examined ways through which social and political issues could be approached in secondary schools. Big thanks to the organising partner Action Synergy and participants from Dah Teatar, Hogeschool UCLL, Branżowa Szkoła and Galileo, as well as our Icelandic participants from Árskóli and Grunnskóli Grindavíkur primary schools.

GeoCamp coordinates and participates in the Erasmus+ funded project HEDA along with partners from Greece, Serbia, Italy, Poland and Belgium.

The project will introduce art for the improvement of citizenship education in Europe, fact which will allow on the one hand to enhance the acquisition of social and civic competences, to foster knowledge, understanding and ownership of values and fundamental rights and on the other hand to enhance critical thinking among students and teachers.
