why

Why is Rapucation an European project?

By not using lipsync images a video can be easily translated. Students in any European country can watch videos in their own language. 
To ensure that cooperation between different groups and different countries goes well, there are demands and criteria that every single rapucation video has to fit. Before a video is placed on our website, a moderator judges the video. The moderator works on the school of the group that has send a video. 

Rapucation wants to improve the atmosphere in schools.School results improve in a safe environment. Rapuction makes it possible for schools throughout Europe to collaborate.
