At the heart of the Culture Creators and Carriers (3C) project lies a shared commitment: to preserve, promote, and pass on Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) through education, collaboration, and creativity. By connecting schools from Spain, Turkey, Italy, and Greece, this Erasmus+ KA210-SCH partnership empowers young people to become the cultural ambassadors of tomorrow.
Our Main Aim:
To raise awareness and appreciation of the intangible cultural heritage that shapes our identities and enriches our communities — while promoting intercultural dialogue, digital creativity, and sustainable practices across Europe.

Cross-Cutting Goals
In addition to the four main pillars, the 3C project also aims to:
