Canada and Nigeria: this exchange has been developed around the idea of tolerance. Students of a Christian/Muslim school in Nigeria have communicated with children of a Jewish summer-camp in Canada. The students have chosen respectively to create a bookmark, and a tapestry/patchwork of individual drawings, all of them illustrating their own idea of tolerance and how to improve it.
Since the students don’t communicate directly with their pals, they have to learn to pass a strong and precise message in their art works, ever challenging their creativity and imagination. Indeed, one of the drawings of the Canadian tapestry had the following legend : Don’t walk ahead of me, I may not follow ; don’t walk behind me, I may not lead you ; walk beside me, so that we can be friends
