The project VALUES - "enVironmentAL and historical edUcation in Europe throug Sport" aims to experiment a method already tested at national level in France by CRUSEP AURA, which uses physical activity -in specific, hiking and urban trekking- as a teaching tool to develop not only motor skills, but also soft skills such as critical observation, critical thinking, the desire to learn, logical thinking and research, with a particular focus on history teaching, and therefore European historical and cultural knowledge.
VALUES provides for the implementation of a path that extends throughout the school year, which includes a series of excursions to the places of memory of the various partners involved: the Regional Association UISP-USEP Alpes-Méditerranée - which also plays the role led by the UISP Committee Ciriè Settimo Chivasso, the French Comité Régionale AURA USEP and the Consell Esportiu del Baix Camp in Tarragona. The project is based on the experience of "Les Chemins de la Mémorie" which for years has been carried out at national level by the association CRUSEP AURA -Comité Régional Union Sportive de l'Enseignement du Premier degrè, Auvergne Rhône Alpes - which uses precisely the physical activity as a didactic tool both historical and respectful for the environment.
The project also addresses multiple priorities of the Erasmus + program - from the European Green Deal to achieve climate neutrality in Europe by 2050, to the encouragement of participation in sport and physical activities, to promote education through these - and also intends to contribute to various objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations. In this case it is Objective 3, to ensure a healthy life and promote well-being for all at all ages; of Objective 4, to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all; of Objective 5, to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
