The network is managed by Stavanger University College, Norway and also has partners in Portugal, Spain, Germany, Sweden , Romania, Bullgaria and Czech Republic. In addition to schools, other partners including archival institutions, teacher training colleges and educational authorities.

The main aim of the network is to encourage and disseminate innovative work in the fields of citizenship, community relations and intercultural contact. The work can be Northern Ireland based or (preferably) carried out across transnational links. Links between European schools are not essential but are encouraged.
