The project Beautiful Constellations aims to use non-formal education and outdoor learning as tools to raise awareness about cultural diversity and environmental protection. By combining astronomy, hiking, and storytelling, it seeks to inspire participants to connect more deeply with nature and recognize the role of the night sky and constellations in shaping human history and culture.
🤝 Promoting Intercultural Understanding
Another key objective is to promote shared humanity and intercultural understanding through the lens of astronomy. Participants will explore how constellations and myths are represented in different cultures, encouraging dialogue, empathy, and respect among young people from diverse backgrounds. This intercultural exchange fosters inclusion, curiosity, and a sense of belonging within the European community.
🚀 Empowering Youth and Educators
Finally, the project seeks to equip youth workers and participants with practical skills and innovative methodologies. Through workshops, guided activities, and collaborative creation, they will learn to integrate astronomy and outdoor education into their daily work. These skills will not only enhance youth participation and creativity but also support long-term initiatives in sustainability, education, and community building.
