Mental maps of students - A brief history
This part of the project aims to produce a non Eurocentric perception of the world. To do this, a survey is conducted on undergraduate students of different countries in the world. The questionnaire asks them about their perception of the world and we have to check if in this world representation, something emerges that could be identified as Europe and what place it is allotted to this area. The survey takes place at least in the 11 partner's countries with some extension in other relevant countries.
