PR1: Training course toolkit development

 

The training course toolkit development consists of the tools that the trainers will use in order to achieve the training and transfer of knowledge to the teacher.

As modern Europe is characterised by a social uncertainty that is the product of global conflicts and large-scale population movements, thus exacerbating the phenomena of prejudice and racism, there is an urgent need to find solutions. With the ultimate aim of strengthening human relations in the European territory, this paper, within the framework of the Erasmus+ Project, “The Music Balkan Train For Peace”, examines and proposes ways in which music and music education can contribute to the development of social synchronisation, the creation of a common European identity and the elimination of phenomena of racism and prejudice within and outside the school context. Conflict resolution has an aesthetic and creative dimension; music can be seen as forming an interactive space in which common meanings can be co-created and through which multiple views can be expressed in order to facilitate peace-building. At the same time, the dialogical spaces implied by musical interactions can promote empathy, by individuals in natural social settings or, on a larger scale, by institutions committed to developing social inclusion or promoting reconciliation.
