In this project, SchoolNet Global students are encouraged to describe aspects of their culture in their own words and with pictures.
The completed student work contributes to the building of a rich archive of personal accounts about different cultures including such aspects as local and national traditions, religion, music, art, and history. This global archive is being created by young people for young and old alike in order to help increase cultural awareness and to foster tolerance and understanding among the peoples of the world.
Bilingual students, or those learning a second language are invited to write their investigations in both languages - adding another dimension to the promotion of intercultural understanding.
