Teachers and students in two schools in Portugal and Germany jointly implement Service-Learning (S-L) activities. S-L combines curricular learning and civic engagement. It requires a real need which is addressed.

EARN – Exploratory Activities to research Real Needs project, an Erasmus Plus Small-scale partnerships in school education,  aims at empowering students to jointly explore the real need of their community, to reflect upon them and to find solutions. As one of the first cross-border S-L activities in Europe, it aims at contributing to the development of the methodological concept of European S-L.
