DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

What is the rationale of this project, in terms of objectives pursued and needs to be addressed?

♦To face the challenges of 21st century education, this Strategic Partnership's synergy aims at enhancing teenagers' transversal skills and civic competences towards successful leadership.  We intend to integrate these skills into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications.
For this purpose, we are going to explore the opportunities that competitive forensics (speech and debates) and creative theatre can offer as extracurricular activities in secondary school. We are eager to discover if oral presentations and artistic performances will further stimulate young people's’ potential to succeed in life, and more precisely, to be competitive on the labour market. 
Besides the overall goal of upgrading and reinforcing education, each partner organisation pursues concrete objectives and benefits from this Strategic Partnership. The project’s successful outcomes will be of significant importance in the sense that:
