It is relevant at local level as it involves cooperation with the environment. The project has lasting results in the form of a collection of project activities (e-book) and the production of a manual for the integration of natural-environmental and artistic-language content through improvisational techniques and multisensory learning.

The project has implemented various workshops on learning manual/technical/artistic skills, improvisational theatre techniques, art, upgrading of science content, deepening of foreign language skills and different ways/techniques of communication throughout the project, taking an active role and responsibility for their environment, protecting the environment by reusing waste glass material, learning how to actively cooperate with local and national institutions, companies, etc. In the framework of exchanges/mobility in different countries, students worked together in international groups and participated in various creative workshops, educational contents and tours, collaborated with the media and performed in a final theatrical performance. As one of the final products, an e-book was produced with an overview of all the content and documented activities carried out during the project. All activities followed the goal - to enthuse about glass in its various forms - a natural material of extraordinary practical usefulness, of extraordinary hardness, sharpness and purity, and figuratively a breakable part of life, from which a new, completely different future is being created.

Concrete results: - Material nature: invitations, posters, a playbill for the performance 'Lomljivo. Zerbrechlich. Fragile.', photo albums (book creator), a shared calendar for 2024, brochures, a collection of proverbs, rhymes, and stories with illustrations within Work Package 3 - 'Glass All Around Us' and 6 - 'My World Shattered into 1000 Pieces', products of the art workshop in Work Package 4 - 'Glass Whispers Its Secrets', a handbook of improvisational games and disciplines. - Intangible nature: preparation and implementation of improvisational theater workshops, as well as the performance within Work Package 6 - 'My World Shattered into 1000 Pieces.' A key result of the project is linked to the fact that all participating schools developed a new perspective on glass as an indispensable everyday material, providing us with a wonderful opportunity for cultural artistic creation and emotional expression.
