EUMIND - EUrope Meets INDia (Educational and ecological initiatives between Europe and India)
EUMIND is a platform for networking between schools in India and Europe. EUMIND schools run internet based e-Journal projects and organize international study visits of teachers, headmasters, principals and exchange of students.
EUMIND was officially established in 2008 in Mumbai. The Eumind networking started in Mumbai, Pune, and the Panchgani area with schools from the Netherland, Belgium, Italy and Finland.
Pawar Public School has undertaken and sustained the EUMIND project and has conducted several exchange programs over the years.
Whether it’s a student project or an international exchange, EUMIND strives first and foremost for quality programming.
In addition, EUMIND seeks:
- To increase knowledge and respect for different cultural values and to discuss issues with tolerance
- To inculcate in students a caring mind and to promote social responsibility
- To develop students’ awareness of various environmental issues and to promote initiatives for sustainable development
- To understand the complex issues of poverty and actively help those living in impoverished conditions.
School-level projects are managed by discussing the project scenario, giving feedback and linking the project to the curriculum. Students are also trained on the usage of e-Journals (an easy publishing online tool) and VC (groups share experience through video conferencing methodology).
We have been working on projects like Values, Regions, On Stage and Math.
Through EUMIND, students connect across cultures, broaden their perspectives and become global citizens.
