The aim of the project is to educate youth/children about the values of space, its advantages and capacities for the community development. This is an important topic considering that public spaces in Montenegro are generally rather neglected and often dangerous for their users and that education about the values of space is insufficient in Montenegro.

The aims of the project:

1.      To increase knowledge of primary and secondary school students about the values of space through delivering thematic lessons and workshops in the primary school “Savo Ilic” in Kotor

2.      To increase practical knowledge of schoolchildren about the designing of space through concrete arrangement of the schoolyard of “Savo Ilic” school

3.      To promote the values of space, with special emphasis on space for youth/children

4.      To support the Education Office of Montenegro in their efforts to introduce education about space as part of regular curriculum in Montenegrin schools
