From Cyprus (Agios Athanasios) Mr. Panicos Athanasiou and Mr. Andreas Paschalides participated as consultants of the Municipality. From Italy, Mr. Antonio Pacifico as the director of the resource centre and Mrs. Maria D’Aprile as responsible for organization of the same adult education centre, organized and took part to the activities. The present project meeting was intended to show the partnership the experiences of the Italian Resource Centre, its main aims, activities, labs and ways of working on the territory for lifelong learning and social inclusion. Further, the national groups reported about the subject chosen in the first meeting to the whole group, which for Italy was the improvement of life quality standards in urban quarters, for Germany was sustainable agriculture and energy sources and for Cyprus was solar energy exploitment. All partners underlined the importance of their cooperative learning by exchanging their work and ideas, and also by disseminating the results to as many people as possible. The programme of the meeting was oriented in visiting urban establishments of the past and the present, such as pre-historic human settlements and their use throughout the centuries up to the 2nd world war (Matera-UNESCO world heritage) and Roman archeological sites and their urban planning (e.g.system of management of waters and building techniques-Ruvo) and Medieval urban settlement with Fredrick II of Swabia in Altamura. The partners compared their own knowledge about the subject and learned one from the other, exchanging views from their personal point of view, bringing with them their experience to be widespread in their own country and place of work. The Italian team presented a range of environmental problems at a local and a national level, even focusing on the projects developed within the national school system about the environmental problems and their possible solutions. Finally, they presented their report about the quarter Mungivacca, a modern neglected suburban area in the same quarter where the school is, which is going to be improved in a short time thanks to the intervention of a large project of re-qualification of the whole area, from a working-class residential quarter, to a modern sustainable quarter with services, new roads, commercial areas, built according to experimental building techniques. The whole partnership visited the Circoscrizione, the local authority in charge for the realization of the project, where the President, Mr. Leonardo Scorza, explained the project itself, and accompanied the group to a visit on the construction site, showing them the road plan and the new conception of building and restoring private houses. The partnership exchanged know-how in the field of exploitation of solar cells for hot water and heating, isolation panels and alternative solutions for water drain systems, even thanks to the presence of an architect in the group. Finally, the partners planned the activities for the next meeting to be held in Cyprus from 1st to 7th May 2006. All the materials produced are collected on the workspace FRONTER and sent to the coordinator in order to be published at the end of the project. Here are some pictures of the Bari-meeting:
