VAL-YOU at the Best of Erasmus 2025 event

We are honoured to have been invited by the German National Agency for School Education to present our project VAL-YOU at the Best of Erasmus 2025 event in Potsdam on 2 October 2025.

During the event, we had the pleasure of offering a practical workshop for teachers on European values in school education and the role of Erasmus+ in fostering these values across Europe.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated, shared ideas, and helped make the exchange so inspiring!

🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️ All people are equal before the law, but what about in practice?Equality is a founding value of the European Union, and gender equality is central to all EU policies.But deep-rooted beliefs about gender roles still shape our views and decisions.�🏛️ Men in power, women at home; these old ideas are still present, especially among certain groups.Research shows that gender equality is stronger in countries with:�✔️ Higher female labour participation�✔️ Economic stability�✔️ Modern work-family policies📊 Curious how different countries view gender leadership?�👉 See the map based on this question: “On the whole, men make better political leaders than women do” (source: www.atlasofeuropeanvalues.eu/).In classrooms, these discussions build democratic citizenship by making values personal, practical, and powerful. #ValYouProject #DemocracyEducation #TeachersForDemocracy #EuropeanValues See MoreSee Less

🕊️ Freedom is a core European value, but how do we see it in everyday life?Freedom means the right to choose how you live, believe, love and speak without coercion from others.It’s deeply linked to tolerance, individualism, and respect for personal autonomy.Over time, processes like modernization and secularization have expanded freedom. But the way people interpret and apply it still varies across Europe.📍 One way we can measure support for freedom:👉 How justified do people find homosexuality?This reflects how societies treat private, personal choices and how comfortable we are with difference.📊 Explore the map to see how attitudes differ across countries (source: www.atlasofeuropeanvalues.eu/).In education, this offers a powerful way to talk about values: grounded in data, real life, and personal rights.#ValYouProject #DemocracyEducation #TeachingDemocracy #LivingDemocracy #EducationForDemocracy #HumanRightsEducation #ValYouEU See MoreSee Less
