Kick-off Transnational Meeting

We are already after the first transnational meeting of the Together Again project. The first meeting

within the Together Again project took place in charming Limanowa. Together Again- this is the slogan

of the project.

Over the next two years, together with partners from Poland, Bulgaria,

Slovakia and Spain, we will be developing a bank of educational tools

and resources for teachers and students, thanks to which it will be

possible to overcome the negative effects of the pandemic and rebuild

interpersonal relations.

At the kick-off meeting at the Władysław Orkan High School in

Limanowa, the basics of the project were defined, the further steps were

planned for the near future and tasks and responsibilities were divided

within the partnership. Despite the tight schedule related to the

development of the project strategy, the guests-partners of the project

visited the school and the Mother of Sorrows Basilica in Limanowa. The

guests participated in culinary workshops. We spent nice time together

making dumplings, wrapping cabbage rolls and yeast rolls. It was an

unforgettable attraction for everyone.

We are extremely proud that the National Agency representing the European Union appreciated

this subject of the project and gave us a chance to implement such necessary and important

tasks.
The second transnational project meeting is planned to be held in June 2022 in Cordoba, Spain.

Partnership

The High School in Limanowa no 1 is a coordinator of the Together Again project. It is school with

a rich history and traditions, one of the oldest and best in Limanowa county. The school teaches,

educates and inspires young people to be creative and stand out of the crowd. The teaching staff

places particular emphasis on the comprehensive development of young people - not only

education and upbringing to fundamental values, but above all discovering talents and individual

predispositions.

ARID has a great deal of experience in the project’s proposal topic area. This association is a

partner in the project in the frame of Erasmus+ School Education. ARID cooperates broadly with

several universities and schools in Poland and is in charge of the correct sequence of the Together

Again project.

Association of Young Psychologists in Bulgaria "4th April" is an informal association of students

and young people, especially interested in psychology. Their main task in the project is to develop

a "toolbox" and specialized methodology for teachers and students to face the consequences of

three-year isolation. Young Psychologists assure that it is an amazing opportunity for cooperation

and re-establishing the bond between the student and the teacher and the student-student.

A public school in Sofia, 93rd Secondary School „Aleksander Teodorov-Balan“ expects to acquire

language competences, new ideas not only for students but also for teachers. The partner has a

great experience in taking part in Erasmus+ programmes, which allow to create educational

spaces and strategies in favor of autonomy and social commitment.

Colegio Séneca in Cordoba, Spain is another partner in the Together Again project, which aims to

develop skills and emotional competences among young people. All partners are aware of the

emotional problems of our students, so we are happy to be able to share the results with our

students and we hope this project will provide incredible materials and knowledge for our students.

INDEPCIE, the Institute for Personal Development, Entrepreneurship, Coaching and Emotional

Intelligence is the partner responsible for support and guidance for secondary school teachers and

young people, focusing on the development of interpersonal and socio-emotional skills.

CEDA Slovakia has significant experience in preparation and implementation of EU projects and

thanks to experienced ICT staff also provides ICT support in projects in the field of Web-Design,

Graphic Design, Programming, LMS implementation… CEDA is the main technological project

partner, it is also the leading partner for dissemination activities and will develop all dissemination

tools (project visual identity, website, flyers, newsletters…) that will be used to promote the

project.

ZS Fatranska, the Slovak school partner, will coordinate the tasks related to the implementation of

pilot testing phase. The pandemic results are the same in all countries, therefore the school in

Slovakia is looking for a common solution to deal with the problems caused by Covid-19, which

have a strong impact on interpersonal relations between students and teachers.
