HISTOLAB, a joint project between the European Union and the Council of Europe, is seeking to spotlight original and innovative projects in learning history from teachers, students, practitioners, researchers, museum experts, as well as early career researchers and professionals for the next European Innovations Days in History education.
If you are a:
- Teacher
- Researcher
- Junior professional
- Academic
with innovative projects and ideas in history education to show, you might want to consider applying for the this Call for Projects!
If your idea or project is chosen for the event, you will be invited to participate in the Innovation Days that are set to take place in the Palais de l’Europe on 3-5 April 2024, in Strasbourg, France.
Your ideas and projects should be in line with the values promoted by the Council of Europe and can, but not only, be inspired by the following questions:
- How can history education amplify underrepresented or marginalised stories?
- How can local history be connected to wider historical events on a European or global level?
- How can new technology and digitalisation be used in history education?
- How can museums and places of remembrance enrich the learning of history?
And could pertain to one or more of these areas:
- Innovation in teaching practices
- Increased and creative use of technology in history teaching
- New thematic focuses in the history curriculum
- Bridging the gap between the state of play in academic research on history education and how history is taught in classrooms
- Innovation in teacher training courses
The HISTOLAB project is implemented in all 46 Council of Europe member states but applications from other countries are also welcome.
The deadline for submission of the application form is 15 December 2023.
