Im November 2022 konnten zwei Schüler der Stufe Q1 des BVA, Lucas Hahn und Ben Hilgemann, am Azubi- und Schülerforum des Europäischen Jugendparlaments in Düsseldorf teilnehmen.

The mobility to Germany in March 2022 started by a welcoming event, greeting and getting to know each other with the help of innovative teaching method of double circle.

The cultural and the economic sustainability was at the core of this mobility and activities connected to these two types were carried out: visit to the Cologne Cathedral, Düsseldorf Museum of interactive art K21, Cologne Modern Art Museum Ludwig as well as a sustainable meal at a historical brewery in Cologne and in Düsseldorf. The local area Dormagen and Zons was explored, too, with the reference to culture and environment. The difference between the two city cultures was presented as well as experienced. Additionally, the ecological pillar of sustainability was carried out: the learning method „Learning outside“ was carried out. For this reason, a very special place was visited-  the Dormagen Rhine Wetland. This is a unique place in Europe because the river’s way has not been changed by men, which is why unique plants and trees are still to be found there. The project participants could see the difference between the normal poplar trees and the unique black poplar trees (saar trees) that can only grow in natural wetlands that have not been changed by men the way it is usually done to make the river’s way straight. Other unique plants have been seen and discussed. This particular wetland (Zonser) Grind is usually not be visited because this is the place where water for the whole Düsseldorf region is being taken. However, the climate change could lead to drying out of this region. The students of this Erasmus project started this learning method for it to be used in the schools‘ curricula from now on. It was also used in Finland on a larger scale afterwards.
