Summary/Abstract: The paper attempts to signal the urgent modern necessity to build relationships, to exchange experience and knowledge, to celebrate the rich diversity of cultural identities or to embrace other races and faiths within the European context. This necessity emerges from an actual endeavour to bridge the segregation between different nations and cultures, and it finds its manifestation in the various programmes, projects and grants offered to teachers and students by the European Union.
