Everybody’s equal, everybody’s different

This experience is intended to place value on the fact that democracy should form part of the curricula of our schools as an implicit value to work with from an early age. Our concern was how to implement this value in a cross-curriculum project. That is why four years ago we started this project promoting democratic values within an inclusive context. We work on cross-curricular competences in a simple way in which pupils are the protagonists, with democracy as the basic strategy. “Everybody’s equal, everybody’s different” arose in response to the necessity of finding answers to school challenges by training people to be critically aware, absolutely democratic and caring. Our main goal is to educate open-minded people to live in a diverse society that is enriched by its diversity.
