Content:
In 2006, a new Association for Learning was created under the name of Routes Towards Europe. It carried out different programs of national scope aimed at senior students and related to the Active Citizenship activities in the European cultural context. Given that the members understood that the growing social groups made up of the European senior citizens can and must have a role, which importance is increasing, in the European society, their implication in local and regional training projects was promoted.
 
 The study groups that were created in each one of the participating countries held debate sessions about topics that had to do with European identity, starting with the research about historical communication routes that have been giving shape to the idea of a common Europe. These groups also carried out studies of English and training sessions about information and communication technology.
 
To be able to exchange information, opinions, etc., the participants used the computer tools of the Project's website and the E-learning Platform Moodle. Besides, students and teachers gathered yearly in national and international seminaries or meetings.
