On the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, which is observed on March 21st, students in approx. 200 schools in 6 partner countries - Spain, Slovenia, Italy, France, Croatia and Poland, start sending letters to their fellow citizens pointing out the importance of solidarity and fraternity.

The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is marked in memory of the 69 killed and many wounded protesters who fought against apartheid in South Africa. Students involved in the international project SAY focus on the incidence of racism and discrimination in their communities, thinking about how to empower those marginalized or discriminated upon. The main goal of the activities is to develop students' critical thinking and civic competence through topics they have chosen as important.

Follow and support them in the upcoming months!
