Who do you think you are - Identity

Age: 
12-15, 16-18
DESCRIPTION

How do you define your identity? And what might such characteristics be? Identity constantly shifts and evolves, and therefore our views about who we are and who others might be are open to change. This theme examines the multidimensional nature of identity and draws on past and present examples, getting us to ponder on what European identity might mean in the 21st century.
