Our last project meeting in Spain - Malaga
Our final project meeting took place between 13th and 21th May 2010 at Instituto Educacion Secondaria “Miguel Romero Esteo, in Malaga, Spain. It was a great opportunity to meet again the colleagues from all partner schools, share new ideas, plan our future work in detail, visit our Spanish partner school and learn about their local culture. Our Spanish partners welcomed us warmly and offered us a wonderful staying there. We met the Spansh students, talked with them, attended some classes in order to enrich our knowledge about the european educational system. Even if this was the last meeting from the project “Media and Teenagers-European Citizenship”, we, all of the participant teachers established the bases of a new project in which our school will have the great opportunity to be a partner again.

Everyody was very happy and we consider that our activity was a succes!Discriminarea – Discrimination – Discriminazione – Diskriminierung
ROMANIAN
Discriminarea este atunci când o persoană este tratată mai puţin favorabil decât altă persoană într-o situaţie comparabilă datorită rasei sau originii sale etnice, religie sau convingeri, handicap, vârstă sau orientare sexuală.
Un exemplu de discriminare este o ofertă de lucru care menţionează că "persoanele cu handicap nu trebuie să aplice". Însă, în realitate discriminarea îmbracă cele mai subtile forme. De aceea discriminarea indirectă este de asemenea acoperită.
ENGLISH
Discrimination occurs when a person is treated less favourably than another in a comparable situation because of their racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation.
An example of discrimination is a job advert, which says "no disabled people need apply." However, in reality discrimination often takes more subtle forms. That’s why indirect discrimination is also covered.
ITALIAN
Vi è discriminazione quando – a parità di situazione – una persona è trattata meno favorevolmente di un’altra a causa della propria origine razziale o etnica, della religione o della professione di fede, di una invalidità, dell’età o del proprio orientamento sessuale.
Un esempio di discriminazione è un annuncio di lavoro che riporti specificamente la dicitura contenente la specificazione “astenersi inabili handicappati”.

GERMAN
Diskriminierung liegt vor, wenn eine Person aufgrund ihrer Rasse oder ethnischen Herkunft, ihrer Religion oder Weltanschauung, einer Behinderung, ihres Alters oder ihrer sexuellen Ausrichtung in einer vergleichbaren Situation eine weniger günstige Behandlung als eine andere Person erfährt. Ein Beispiel für eine Diskriminierung wäre eine Stellenanzeige, in der es heißt, dass Bewerbungen von Menschen mit Behinderungen nicht berücksichtigt werden. In der Praxis nimmt Diskriminierung jedoch häufig subtilere Formen an. Daher beziehen sich die neuen Richtlinien auch auf mittelbare Diskriminierung.
SPANISH
Hay discriminación cuando se trata a una persona de manera menos favorable que a otra en una situación análoga por motivos de origen racial o étnico, religión o convicciones, discapacidad, edad u orientación sexual.
Ejemplo de discriminación: en un anuncio de trabajo se indica: «Absténganse personas con discapacidad».
Sin embargo, la discriminación adopta normalmente formas más sutiles. Por eso se ha incluido la discriminación indirecta.

I’m a European!
“What a boring day!” I said to myself.
“There is no one interested in taking a cab at this hour”.
But then something captured my attention. It was 10 minutes to 6 p.m. when I saw her in front of a very fashionable restaurant. She was a beautiful blond young lady, looking or waiting for something or someone. Her eyes were lightning scanning every person on the street. She seemed a little confused and lost, but in the same time nervous. Looking more carefully at her I saw a big stain of red wine on her cream jacket. Shortly, a man appeared closed to her. He was having some humble gestures, like he was trying to calm her down. After a short discussion he came back into the restaurant. But the lady continued to stay at the restaurant entrance.
When I looked again 2 minutes later she was in the same place smoking another thin cigarette. Then, trying not to seem strongly interested in her behavior, I took the newspaper and start reading. Then…
“Let’s go! Faster please!” a woman voice commanded after slamming the car’s door.
“Where are we going?" I asked looking in the mirror to see who is that polite person. It was that young lady…
“Hey...are you listening to me?" she asked.
“Let’s go!”
“Ok, I am driving to nowhere if you want, but I’ll also start the …”
“To the Majestic Hotel” she quickly added.
She took a deep breath as the taxi drove her away from that restaurant. After a few quiet moments she started talking.
“Outside there were a few taxis lined-up, but from all of them I choosed you. I hope you are okay, I mean you are British, aren’t you? You look like a British person. Being impressed by such a direct approach, I dared to give a quick response:
“If really matters… yes I’m from here” I said with a lost voice. Then the climax came:
“I hate this town. I came here for relaxation and I receive only disagreement concerning my beliefs … I don’t understand them. That incompetent waitress spilled a glass of wine on my jacket. Then she told me that she feels sorry. But I don’t care about her apology. She is an immigrant. I wanted to be fired by her manager in front of me, in my presence. But the manager of the restaurant refused to do it. He is an immigrant too. Everyone who is not from here seems so arrogant. I hate this town. Is full of Europeans…You know what kind of Europeans” she added.
“But we all are Europeans” I interrupted her.
My intervention made her silent for a while, giving me the chance to think at the shortest route to the hotel. My luck! I wanted to get out of this conversation as soon as possible, so I started driving faster than before. The destination was very close, then unexpectedly:
“What are you doing? Do you want to kill me? Why did you passed on yellow light? Do you want to kill me?
“Sorry, I didn’t want to scare you.”
“Sorry! You feel sorry? You are just like that waitress! You did it because you wanted to do it”.
Being intrigued by her words I pressed hard on the breaks. I felt a sudden urge to revenge. The route was finally over. I managed to bring her in front of the hotel.
“You will pay for this! I’ll call to your taxi company! Let’s see who is going to pay for this route. You are so ungrateful, just like that waitress!
While she continued with all the offenses I had finally the courage to intervene and to tell her:
“I’m a European!”
Then I left the hotel parking with a rare feeling, a feeling of doubt. I keep wondering how can someone so beautiful and graceful have such a wheel-deal? Something bothered me very much. That something made me feel as an intruder after a long period of time. I felt repulsion, rejection, objection…

OUR HELP WILL HELP THE WORLD!!!
Europe faces two big problems concerning its regard to population: racism and xenophobia. The political debates concerning these problems do not seem to have a good result. They are the cause of the migration of people looking for a job or a place to study, the existence of minorities, the greater number of unemployed people, and the economical crisis ;they all feed racism and xenophobia. This way, the immigrants and the minorities will be disadvantaged in taking the risk to be left out of one country’s population.
Why do we forget to help and respect people like us, around us? Why do we hate all those people who are not from our country? Why can’t we survive peacefully?
We live in an unfair society, being judged for our origin, color, culture or religion?
Foreign children cannot have the same education as the others, they are completely ignored, if they look for a job, they have smaller chances to get hired.
We have to fulfill a task for our future in order to reach a new evolution of our society, we have to build and keep a peaceful world, to respect our rights and responsibilities – all these are important and inseparable aspects for our climate and a good life.
A possible solution is not closing the frontiers of the countries, but to accept our fellow creatures as a human person.
