OVERWIEV

Today, the fact that industrialization, urbanization and advanced technology facilitate human life is defined as "modern life". Modern lifestyle is an approach that puts people at the center of life. Therefore, measure in modern life; are human and human needs. Over time, people have seen themselves as the masters of nature. The wrong behaviors developed by evaluating nature as a product that can be consumed and put at the disposal of people have led to the excessive use of natural resources and many environmental problems. On the other hand, the facilities provided by the modern lifestyle narrow the physical range of people and impose a sedentary life on people. Health problems and environmental problems related to sedentary life, which can be considered as the disadvantages of modern life, are the two most important problems in Europe. According to WHO data, it is stated that overweight affects 30-80% of adults in Europe, approximately 20% of children and young people are overweight and one third of them are obese. According to the report of the European Environment Agency, environmental pollution causes early death of an average of 500 thousand Europeans every year. Today, an average of 400 kg of "urban (domestic) solid waste" is generated per capita annually in European Union member countries. Leaving environmental solid wastes to nature is one of the important causes of environmental pollution and related environmental problems. Among the solid wastes left in the environment, plastic bottles can decompose in 1000 years, batteries in 100 years, plastic bags in 10-20 years and glass bottles in 4 thousand years. These figures show that the health of future generations of Europe, leaving a livable Europe to future generations and ensuring the continuity of the EU depend on the measures to be taken today. As much as the sustainable environment and raising a healthy generation, the EU considers "cultural and social integration" as important for the continuity of the union. To ensure sustainability in protecting the common cultural heritage in terms of ensuring the cultural integrity of the EU; It depends on the formation of awareness and awareness in individuals, the awareness of the society about cultural heritage, and the perception of heritage. Young people are the key people who can connect the past, present and future in recognition and protection of cultural heritage.
According to Eurostat 2018 data, 16% of the EU population is below the poverty line. Young people who are economically and socially restricted due to poverty and who are excluded from social life; It does not seem possible for the EU to absorb the common values, to experience the European cultural heritage through a proper life, and to participate fully in social and cultural life. We cooperated on the basis of common needs and goals in our project of 4 schools, 2 associations and 1 university from Europe, which provide education to students who are socio-economically disadvantaged and at risk of social exclusion. As the institutions / organizations in the project, we aim to mobilize our students, who are the determinant of the future of the EU and Europe, represent the young generation, for their own health and sustainable environment, and to reveal their existing potential. At the same time, we want to increase the awareness of the disadvantage of our target audience about European cultural heritage and European common culture / art. Thus, we will have served the EU's cultural policy with our project, which aims to discover the cultural heritage of European cities and European nations, to protect and recognize their local culture and identities, and to promote their cultural diversity and to achieve greater integration
