To say so there was one main goal of this project: To foster cultural awareness and cultural understanding for those on society’s margins, especially young adults between 18-35 years with any restrictions e.g. migrant background, low qualification level, long-term employment and economic barriers. By making cultural education possible, the impact is not only on individuals who participate in cultural education processes but also on society at large. People get better included in society, have more self-confidence, and have better access to the labour market, and career advances are more likely. The specific objectives of the project were the following: *Inclusion of young adults (18-35) with different restrictions into the colourful Europe Bringing European culture closer to people with restrictions letting them be an active part of cultural life and allowing them to shape culture. *Providing adult educators with a teaching concept and materials regarding cultural education. They can use the materials directly in their everyday teaching. * Raising awareness of the importance of culture * Supporting the acceptance of the variety of cultures in Europe
