SUMMARY:Decolonising History - Workshop on "How do you decolonise history?"
DESCRIPTION:Workshop hosted by David Rawlings\, University of Bristol\, and by members of CARGO\n\nThis workshop will explore the process of decolonising the history we teach\, the challenges involved and the principles that can guide our practice. The workshop will compromise two parts. In the first half\, attendees will be introduced to the principles behind the CARGO classroom initiative and use these to explore the question of how to decolonise the history classroom. \nIn the second half\, attendees will reflect on the challenges that we are faced with when we attempt to decolonise the history we teach\, hearing the testimonies from history teachers working with the CARGO classroom initiative\, and explore what changes we can make to our own practice to teach more decolonised histories. \n  \nAbout the workshop hosts \nDavid Rawlings is Senior Lecturer in History Education at the University of Bristol. He is subject lead for the History PGCE course and advises a number of organisations and publishers on the inclusivity and diversity of their history education materials\, including how they can deliver more decolonised histories. \nCARGO (Charting African Resilience Generating Opportunities) is a collective of artists\, poets and filmmakers\, led by Lawrence Hoo and Charles Goulding\, from across the globe with a single-minded vision to address the balance of accessible narratives from the African diaspora. The CARGO classroom initiative aims to address the narratives that are missing from the history that is taught in schools across the UK\, including the perspectives of individuals of African and African Diaspora descent and the recognition of their resilience\, contributions and visionary leadership: CARGO© (cargomovement.org). \n\n\n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”SiteOrigin_Widget_Button_Widget”][/siteorigin_widget]\n\nParticipation Fee\n\nParticipation to the webinar series is free for all EuroClio Individual Members\, as well as for Members of our Member Associations. \nIf you are not a Member\, you can register to single sessions for a fee of 15 EUR\, or register to the full series for 60 EUR. \nWould you like to become an Individual Member? Register here. \n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”WP_Widget_Media_Image”][/siteorigin_widget]\n\n\n\n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”Tribe__Events__List_Widget”][/siteorigin_widget]

SUMMARY:Decolonising History - Keynote Lecture on "Decolonising the Curriculum: an introduction"
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Prof. Peter D’Sena\n\nIn 2015\, students at the University of Cape Town called for the statue of Cecil Rhodes\, the nineteenth-century British coloniser\, to be removed from their campus. Their clarion call\, in this quick spreading #RhodesMustFall movement\, was that for diversity\, inclusion and social justice to become a lived reality\, the full gamut of educational provision should be challenged\, and schools and universities decolonised. Concerns had long been voiced by both academics and students about curricula dominated by white\, capitalist\, heterosexist\, western worldviews at the expense of the experiences and discourses of those not perceiving themselves as fitting into those mainstream categories. However\, for change to happen\, the dominant and deeply embedded Eurocentric knowledge and values systems underpinning the curriculum had to be transformed in order to take better account of cultural diversity and multiperspectivity. Moreover\, institutional and structural change was also necessary: tuition fees should fall\, and the recruitment\, retention and outcomes for all students and staff should be equitable\, rather than serving to reproduce ‘white privilege’. \nThis inter-active\, inter-subjective presentation provides an introduction to the debates about the decolonising the curriculum movement; it explores its relevance for equity and social justice; and asks participants to reflect on their own practise and consider ways in which they can begin to create a personal strategy for change. \n  \nAbout Peter D’Sena \nPeter D’Sena is Associate Professor of  Learning and Teaching at the University of Hertfordshire and a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of Historical Research. His key contributions to history education are borne from his enduring commitment\, over four decades\, to equality and inclusion. As a writer of the revised National Curriculum in the late 1990s he championed the introduction of black history; now he continues to lecture and write on decolonising the curriculum. As the HEA’s National Lead for History he organised the revision of the QAA Benchmark Statement and created innovative resources for those ‘New to Teaching’. He is a fellow of the Historical Association\, a principal fellow of the HEA and last year he was elected to be the first President of SoTL’s European branch for History. Professor D’Sena is also Vice-President and Chair of Education Policy Committee at the Royal Historical Association. \n\n\n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”SiteOrigin_Widget_Button_Widget”][/siteorigin_widget]\n\nParticipation Fee\n\nParticipation to the Keynote Lecture is free of charge \n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”WP_Widget_Media_Image”][/siteorigin_widget]\n\n\n\n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”Tribe__Events__List_Widget”][/siteorigin_widget]

SUMMARY:Decolonising History - A webinar series
DESCRIPTION:Have you been wondering how to teach about colonialism without resorting to a narrative of victims and perpetrators? Or how to account for the impact of colonialism on history curricula? Would you like to know more about recognising your own biases? \nFollowing the killing of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter protests sparked across the world\,  we have been asking ourselves these questions. \nWe are proud to launch our webinar series and thematic month on ‘decolonising history’ during which we will tackle these key questions for history educators today. \n\n\nThe design of this webinar series\n\nThe webinar series will take place over a six weeks period in Spring 2021 (starting 16 April 2021 with regular sessions until 18 May 2021). The programme will open with an icebreaker on the use of popular culture to decolonise history\, in which participants will have the opportunity to get to know each other and to collect ideas and resources to teach about the colonial past with popular culture. The icebreaker will be followed by a keynote lecture. This lecture\, hosted by prof. Peter D’Sena\, will help participants reflect on what do “decolonising history” and “decolonising the curriculum” mean\, as well as what kind of actions this entails. The keynote will be followed by four hands on workshop\, which will provide teachers with tools to effectively talk about colonialism and its legacies in the classroom. Participants will be presented tools and methodologies to: \n\nTeach about racism and the colonial past of a country.\nRecognise their own biases when it comes to sensitive topics\, hosted by Dr. Kay Traille.\nTalk about contested cultural heritage and its links with the colonial past of a country.\nDiscuss with students how to unpack what our textbooks tell about European empires in the 19th century.\n\nThe series will close with a feed forward and exchange session\, in which participants will have the opportunity to share reflections\, insights\, tips and tricks on decolonising history\, building onto the questions raised during the keynote lecture and the knowledge acquired throughout the series. \n\n\nWhat will you learn?\n\nDuring the webinar series\, you will: \n\nExchange experiences on teaching about colonialism in your local/national context with other educators\, as well as on how colonialism and its legacies are perceived by society.\nUnderstand how colonialism has influenced historical narratives and the development of the history curriculum.\nAcquire skills and knowledge on how to teach about colonialism and its long-term legacy.\nLearn how to recognise and address your and your students’ biases.\nLearn how to find and use diverse\, inclusive\, and representative sources.\n\n\n\n\n[siteorigin_widget class=”SiteOrigin_Widget_Button_Widget”][/siteorigin_widget]\n[siteorigin_widget class=”PW_Icon_Box”][/siteorigin_widget]\n[siteorigin_widget class=”PW_Icon_Box”][/siteorigin_widget]\n\nParticipation Fees\n\nParticipation to the webinar series is free for all EuroClio Individual Members\, as well as for Members of our Member Associations. \nIf you are not a Member\, you can register to single sessions for a fee of 15 EUR\, or register to the full series for 60 EUR. \nWould you like to become an Individual Member?

How and Why?”\, do not hesitate to contact Alice Modena. \n\n\nIn collaboration with\n\n \nHouse of European History \n\n\n\n\n\n*PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT AND THAT REGISTRATIONS ARE NO LONGER POSSIBLE*  \nTo register your interest in future editions of this training course\, please write to Alice Modena: alice@euroclio.eu \nWe are delighted and honoured to present the Training Seminar “Teaching European Integration. How and Why?”. The Training\, which is the first training organised by EuroClio and the House of European History\, will take place in Brussels\, Belgium\, from 22-24 November 2019. \nThe House of European History is a museum and learning forum established in Brussels with the support of the European Parliament. It aims at promoting the knowledge of the history of the European Union\, as well as the understanding that there are multiple perspectives connected to it. Together\, we will welcome 20 motivated history and citizenship educators from all across Europe. We will offer a programme full of active workshops\, keynote lectures\, feedback sessions and visits to the House of European History’s exhibition. The programme will focus on the theme: “Teaching European Integration. How and Why?”\, and will make use of original educational material developed by the House of European History and by EuroClio. \nWhether students\, and people at large\, like it or not\, the European Union has a huge impact on everyone’s life. Every day\, in fact\, European citizens enjoy freedoms that would not have been at their disposal were it not for the Union\, and are at the same time subject to rules and regulations that have been established by it. Furthermore\, in the last decades\, people’s identity has been increasingly influenced by their sense of belonging or not belonging to the Union\, ultimately resulting in complex and multiple identity affiliations. \nNevertheless\, students lack a clear understanding of what the European Union is and how it came to be. The day after the Brexit Referendum (23 June 2016)\, for example\, the most researched question on Google in the United Kingdom was “What is the E.U.”. \nWith no knowledge of the EU and its history\, it can be argued\, students become disenfranchised\, starting a vicious circle hard to break: the less they know about the EU\, the less they understand the impact it has on them and on their identity\, and the impact they can have on it\, and the less they want to know about it. \nHistory and citizenship educators are in a unique position: they can help students break this circle. They\, in fact\, have the possibility to promote\, among their students\, a clear understanding of the events that led to the creation of the European Union\, of how it functions\, how it came to be\, and why it is a unique institution\, results of unique choices and turns of events. \nUnfortunately\, however\, teachers often encounter a series of obstacles when tackling the history of European Integration in the classroom. Among them\, the most relevant are: \n\na lack of time to devote to the topic;\nan dense\, set curriculum\, which allocates few lessons to the history of the EU;\nthe lack of interest from students in approaching European integration and its history.\n\nThis training on “Teaching European Integration” will focus on how teachers can bring the history of the European Union to the classroom in an engaging and meaningful way. Participants will be equipped with a series of ready-to-use materials to teach the history of the European Integration\, including materials that link the topic with national and world history\, making easier to connect it with national curricula. \n  \n\n\n\n\n[su_accordion] \n\n[su_spoiler title=”Programme” open=”yes”] \nThroughout the seminar\, participants will take part to active sessions (including workshops and feedback session) that tackle the history of the European Union from two different angles. First\, the case for teaching the history of the European Union will be made\, and European Integration will be put in the global and national contexts. In the second part of the seminar\, participants will receive specific training on how to bring the history of European Integration in the classroom\, making the concepts accessible to all students without sacrificing the complexity of the institutions and their history. They will also be introduced to material on how to discuss the European Union in the twenty-first century\, and its impact on global history and people’s identity. \n \n[/su_spoiler] \n[su_spoiler title=”Logistics and Fees” open=”yes”] \nThematic Seminar participation includes joining interesting workshops and discussion\, coffee breaks\, lunches and dinners.  The Early Bird Fee of € 180\,- per person will cover for the programme\, while the House of European History will offer the meals. \nIn addition\, we will also offer a discounted rate for Individual EuroClio Members. The discount for Individual EuroClio Members is of € 40\,- and is applicable to the Early Bird Fee and to the Full Summer School Fee. \nThe deadline for Early Bird registrations is 14 September. After 14 September the full rate of € 220\,- per person applies. However\, there are a limited number of places available\, and we would advise you to register as soon as possible. \n[/su_spoiler]

SUMMARY:Critical Thinking in the Age of Emoji’s: Does History Education Play a Role for Media Literacy?
DESCRIPTION:Fake News. Echo Chambers. Viral Posts. Society looks at Education to help student navigate this "brave new world". Citizenship is seen as the place to deliver Media Literacy. But Maybe History can Play a Role? The Digital Age has after all brought a lot of tools to the history educators\, including easy access to billions of sources…How to choose? What to do? What to teach? \nAre you an educator\, or otherwise professionally interested and curious about these questions? \nJoin us on 2 February in Hilversum at a One-Day Conference about these issues. \nThe event is part of the "Media and History" Erasmus+ project. Students in Europe are exposed to history in various ways: By talking with family and friends\, by watching TV and movies\, by listening to music\, by playing games\, by following public debates. All these factors influence the way students look at history. Without critical attitudes and understanding of how history is being made\, students simply echo these ideas. The fact that more and more of this expose to young Europeans – being digital natives – is happening through means\, is not reflected in the way history is generally being taught. In the "Media and History" project specialists in history and media education from Hungary\, Italy\, Poland\, Slovenia\, Spain\, The Netherlands and United Kingdom work together to encourage history educators to use multimedia resources to help students become more media literate. Students will use digital tools to make their own presentations of the past\, better realise that historical (re)presentations are not exact copies of the past\, and improve their research skills (in making judgments about the reliability of information they find online). \n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshops\n\n[su_tabs class="become-a-member"] [su_tab title="Parallel Workshops by International Trainers"] \n\nYulia Kusnereva\, Moscow Gymnasium 1567\, History teacher (Russia)\n"Struggling with media titles and images"\nContent of the workshop will be announced.\n\n\nDaniel Bernsen\, IGS Pellenz\, History teacher (Germany)\n"Potentials of collaborative working for the history classroom"\nIn this workshop\, participants will discover the difference between co-operative and collaborative working. Etherpads and wikis are presented as tools for collaborative working in the history classroom. Participants will have the opportunity to try the tools by themselves and discuss their usefulness\, potentials and limits for history learning.\n\n\nAlexander Cutajar\, University of Malta\, History teacher (Malta)\n"Now playing (in a classroom near you): Teaching history students how to be critical when analysing media content"\nThis workshop will focus on historical sources in the form of media footage from the Cold War and how these sources can be used to create teaching strategies to see what questions history teachers may ask in order for students to (a) be critical of the content; (b) judge the reliability of online information; and (c) use them as evidence. Participants will have time to discuss ideas\, and share experiences and concerns about being critical with media broadcasts in history lessons.\n\n[/su_tab] [su_tab title="Parallel Workshops by Dutch Experts"] \n\nChris van Hall\, Nieuws in de Klas\nChris van Hall will give a workshop in Dutch on how newsletter articles can be used in classrooms to introduce students to the use of media and help them understand these media sources. He will also show ways in which teachers can use these media sources for free in their own classrooms.\nGonnie Eggink\, teacher in journalism at Windesheim College\nGonnie Eggink will use her expertise in journalism to demonstrate in an active workshop how media sources can be evaluated. She will show the results of her research and work together with participants on ways to use media sources in history classrooms.\nStefan Rops\, history teacher and vlogger\nHistory teacher Stefan Rops will give an on-hands workshop on the ways vlogs can be used to make history more interesting and interactive for students. He has an extensive expertise in the making of history-related vlogs which will be presented at the workshop.[/su_tab]\n\n[/su_tabs]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[su_button url="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/critical-thinking-in-the-age-of-emojis-registration-39690510385″ target="blank" style="flat" background="#00AB44″ size="12″ wide="yes" center="yes" radius="3″]REGISTER[/su_button]\n\n\n\n\nDownloads\n\n'Critical Thinking in the age of Emoji's' final programme \n'Historisch denken voorbij emoticons' definitief programma \n Alternative facts – Key Note paper Maria Grever \n\n\n\n\n\nThis Event is a Part of\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nPartners\n\n \n \n \n  \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\nHosted By

SUMMARY:Revolutions in Contemporary History - International Scientific and Practical Conference
DESCRIPTION:EuroClio –  is going to host the International Scientific and Practical conference “Revolutions in contemporary history: facts\, interpretations and educational strategies” in Saint-Petersburg (Russia) from 27-28 October 2017. The conference is held in cooperation with the St. Petersburg Academy of In-Service Teachers’ Training\, and the St. Petersburg Branch of All-Russian public organization “Association of teachers of History and Social Sciences”. \nEven though the Russian Revolution of 1917 is going to be the main focus of the conference\, it will also be used as a model for analysis of other revolutionary activities\, revolts and protests that took place in Europe throughout the 20th century. \nThe Russian Revolution of 1917 is considered the first significant revolution in Russian historiography as this revolution brought dramatic changes not only to the peoples of Russia but completely modified the whole world order and determined much of the course of history for the following seventy years. The aftermath of the Russian revolution can still be observed in current domestic\, international and global politics\, cultures\, economies and societies. \nWe hope to welcome you at the International Scientific and Practical Conference “Revolutions in contemporary history: facts\, interpretations and educational strategies”\, which promises to be an event full of sharing ideas\, methods\, techniques and approaches to teaching the Russian revolution and dialogue between European and Russian history educators.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		 \n			Registration Closed		\n	\n\n\n\n\n\nDOWNLOADS\n\n  \nBackground programme \nConference Programme \nInformation Package \n\n\n\n\n\nCO-ORGANISED BY\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	[su_tabs class=”become-a-member”]\n[su_tab title=”Themes”] \n[su_list icon=”icon: caret-right”] \n\nRevolutions now and then. What’s changed? Case study of the revolutions with the example of the Russian Revolution. The digital age of (in)stability: separatist movements\, transnational terrorism\, political protests and demonstrations.\nHistory educators across Europe teach the Russian Revolution to school students. Obtaining more information about the context\, flow and aftermath of the Russian revolution\, re-assessment of the legacy and consequences as well as sharing of the methods\, techniques\, views and attitudes towards the Russian revolution from a shared European and local Russian perspective will enhance the perception of the Russian revolution\, enrich and improve the teaching of the topic and offer a fresh perspective on the events that happened 100 years ago. Understanding of the past revolutions will help both the educators and their students to make connections between the past and the presence\, critically reflect on the past and assess the contemporary events\, such as current protests\, demonstrations and revolutions\, with proper analytical and rational skills.\nEducational strategies in the digital age of information overflow (digital learning\, responsible teaching\, interactive education)\nOn the one hand\, teaching history is becoming more and more difficult and challenging in the digital age of information overflow\, but on the other hand the potential for using ICT in teaching history offers numerous opportunities for improvement. The availability\, reachability and accessibility of sources adds to multiperspectivity and plurality in history\, however it is important not only to provide sources\, but also teach how to work with them and how to distinguish between a trustworthy and an untrustworthy source. Apart from digital learning and responsible teaching\, the conference will cover educational strategies to teaching the Russian revolution in a series of workshops that will include teaching history with the help of visualization techniques (cinematography\, documentaries\, media and re-enactment)\, animation\, computer games as well as the general use of international online sources.\n\n[/su_list] \n[/su_tab] \n[su_tab title=”Aims and Objectives”] \n[su_list icon=”icon: caret-right”] \n\nTo encourage the Europe wide debate on how the Russian revolution influenced both world\, European\, Russian and other national histories in the course of the 20th and the 21st centuries\nTo evaluate what lessons can be learned from the case of the Russian revolution in order to make sense of the past revolutions as well as those that are taking place in the most contemporary history (e.g. Velvet Revolutions in the CIS region and the Arab revolutions in the Middle East)\nTo compare and contrast views\, perceptions and perspectives on the Russian revolution both in Europe and Russia as well as teaching techniques\, approaches and strategies to teaching the Russian Revolution in the 21st century\nTo facilitate theoretical knowledge exchange in the field of studies of the revolutions\nto explore the teaching techniques\, approaches and attitudes of history educators both from Europe and Russia towards the Russian revolutions as well as its influence on the national histories of Europe by spreading the questionnaire and consequent data analysis\nTo develop a common understanding of responsible history teaching in the current world dynamic as a bridge for peace\, citizenship\, human rights and democracy education\nTo strengthen the capacity building and professional development of both European and local Russian educators in a multicultural learning environment\nTo foster cooperation and networking between European and Russian history teaching associations and individual history educators\n\n[/su_list] \n[/su_tab] \n[su_tab title=”Outcomes”] \n[su_list icon=”icon: caret-right”] \n\nIncreased participation\, dialogue and knowledge transfer in the European community of History Educators\nImproved English-language competence through facilitated and engaged dialogues\nRaised awareness of cultures and identities through reflection on the teaching of history (Russian Revolution) across Europe and Russia\nAccess to new partnerships\, including schools\, local\, regional\, national and international educational authorities and institutes in Russia\nRecognition of developed competences in history education through lifelong learning in the international context\nAccess to innovative history education tools from across Europe with a focus on education for democratic citizenship\nTo transform the shared experiences of integrated and cross-border history education in diverse societies into tangible guidelines for educators and policy-makers\nUnderstanding of the challenges related to dealing with sensitive issues in history\nA conference report for wider dissemination\, including educational resources\, and academic papers\n\n[/su_list] \n[/su_tab] \n[su_tab title=”How to register?”] \nRegistration is now closed \nThe conference fee is 385 euro per person and will include for the entire duration of the conference: \n[su_list icon=”icon: caret-right”] \n\nAccommodation in a 3-star hotel A-Hotel Fontanka\, located in the historical centre of Saint Petersburg on the Fontanka river embankment (single or twin rooms)\nRegistration costs\nTransportation\nCultural programme i.e. museum visits – Museum of Political History and the Hermitage.

SUMMARY:Final Training of Silencing Citizens through Censorship-project in Skopje\, Macedonia
DESCRIPTION:The Silencing Citizens Through Censorship-project involves a transnational group of history and citizenship educators from EuroClio’s member Associations in France\, Germany\, Hungary\, Italy\, Macedonia\, Poland\, and Spain in the development and implementation of students-driven projects on censorship in Europe’s 20th century dictatorial and totalitarian regimes. The focus will be on the history of Franco’s Spain (1936 – 1975)\, Vichy France (1940 – 1945)\, Nazi Germany (1933-1945)\, Mussolini’s Italy (1922 – 1943)\, the post-1945 Hungarian ( – 1990) and Polish Republics (1944 – 1989) and the Republic of Macedonia as part of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia under Tito (1945 – 1980). During the project the team members will develop engaging and thought-provoking resources on striking historical examples of censorship with their students through the collection\, compilation and analysis of multi-perspective sources. Students with their teacher will then organise local public events such as exhibitions or debates to showcase the cases they researched in a way that questions the resonance of such history today. \n\n\n\n\n\n The team comes together in Skopje for an intensive final training.

SUMMARY:2016 International Conference on History Education for Peace in East Asia and Europe
DESCRIPTION:A unique gathering of educators and civil society practitioners from East Asia and Europe to explore the role of international cooperation\, history education and civil society in establishing sustainable peace in East Asia in dialogue with Europe. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1\n2\n3\n4\n5\n\nLooking back at…\nEuroClio\, was the proud and selected host for the International NGOs Forum on History and Peace in Leiden\, Utrecht and The Hague. Together with the International History NGO for History and Peace they aimed to organise a Conference focusing on History and Peace. In many ways the goal of gaining a better common understanding of the role of international relations\, history education and civil society in establishing sustainable peace in East Asia in a dialogue with Europe\, was achieved. \nIn the evaluation one of the participants concluded: “The conference was excellent in every regard. It was particularly rewarding to have such a large number of excellent Asian scholars. I might note in particular the excellent presentation by Daching Yong\, as well as the moving address by the elderly Korean woman who relayed her experiences with such emotional and moral force.” \nEuroClio devoted an article to each day\, with an emphasis on the daily focus. If you would like to continue reading about Historical Justice in Europe and East-Asia\, the history of colonialism and World War Two in Europe and East Asia or Global History in the 21st Century\, please follow one of the links. \n \nThe Programme\n6 July @ The Hague Institute for Global Justice\nHistorical Justice in Europe and East Asia\nKey Note speech by Prof. Dr. Antoon de Baets\, followed by presentations\, and visits to The Hague – City of Peace and Justice.\nReport: “Teaching about Historical Justice at the Europe-Asia Conference in The Hague“ \n7 July @ Leiden University\nAddressing the history of colonialism and World War 2 in Europe and East Asia: comparing and contrasting\nVisit to LeidenAsiaCentre\, discussion panels and thematic workshops\nReport: “Comparing and Contrasting European and East Asian History“ \n8 July @ Utrecht University\nTeaching global history in the 21st century: challenges and opportunities and the role of teachers\nPanel presentations on peaceful cooperation in East Asia\, workshops by university lecturers\nReport: “Teaching for Peace in Practice – Challenges and Opportunities“ \nDownloads\nBackground Note\nMany tensions in the world are rooted in history and the way in which it is learned at school\, perceived in public\, and addressed politically can be seen to either resolve or sustain these tensions. This is in particular the case for East Asia\, where history is at the top of political and civil agenda\, aiming to address territorial disputes\, controversial commemorations and historical interpretations. Also history education\, in particular textbooks\, is constantly in the spotlight. \nThe annual International NGOs Forum on History and Peace\, co-organized by the International History NGO for History and Peace\, already since 2008 is a unique platform for cooperation among thousands of representatives of civil society\, education and research with a focus on strengthening cooperation between China\, South Korea and Japan\, as well as fostering co-operation across East Asia and beyond. With many strong civil society partners\, the Forum has initiated and partnered on a variety of projects and partnerships\, which include the production of joint history textbooks\, youth and teacher exchanges. \nThe Forum has also always sought to connect with political representatives\, civil society\, experts and educators from across the world. It has worked closely with different key organisations and expert on history in Europe. In the particular case of Europe\, the Forum aimed to compare and contrast pathways to truth-seeking\, historical dialogues and reconciliation\, as these have manifested themselves in Europe. \nOne of the key European partners for the Forum has been\, since 2009\, the EuroClio – Inspiring History and Citizenship Educators. This association\, established in 1992 and connecting over 30.000 professionals from over 50 countries\, supports the development of responsible and innovative history\, citizenship and heritage education as a way to promote critical thinking\, mutual respect\, peace\, stability and democracy. The Association advocates a sound use of history and heritage education towards the building and deepening of democratic societies\, connecting professionals across boundaries of countries\, ethnicities\, and religions. It seeks to enhance the quality of history and citizenship education through capacity building for educators and producing and implementing innovative teaching tools. \nEuroClio\, the selected host for the International NGOs Forum on History and Peace\, is proud to welcome history educators\, researchers\, civil society activists and political representatives from Europe\, East Asia\, and beyond\, to come to The Hague\, an International City of Peace and Justice\, on 6-8 July 2016 in order to gain a better common understanding of the role of international relations\, history education and civil society in establishing sustainable peace in East Asia in a dialogue with Europe. \nShow more Show less

SUMMARY:International Training Seminar: "Changing Europe"
DESCRIPTION:European Dilemmas and European Decisions\nThe people of the continent of Europe have tried various different ways of managing conflict across the centuries. They have formed alliances\, signed treaties\, sometimes tried to dominate each other\, and more recently have formed supranational organisations where they have common interests. By considering the European Union as one of these methods to manage conflict in Europe\, students can take a historical perspective on the contemporary world. \nThe seminar aims to explore the question of “How to teach about the EU from a historical perspective” through a (inter)active and engaging programme with presentations\, on-site study visits\, workshops\, and round table discussions using the materials developed within the EuroClio project Decisions and Dilemmas I. The conference will provide a platform of intercultural exchange in which the participants will actively learn\, share experiences and network. \nExtra Information\nAims \n\n To build the capacity of history and citizenship educators from various European countries and inspire them to be creative in their professional practice\, encourage cross-border cooperation and enable sharing experiences.\n To provide training in the use of the teaching resources developed in the Decision and Dilemmas project that are designed to promote learning about the European Union from a historical perspective in an engaging way.\n To share and discuss the research findings of the Teaching Europe project after having jointly analyzed how European integration is represented in history textbooks from all 28 EU member states.\n To promote the use of Historiana as tool for innovative and responsible history education and engage the participants to contribute to its further development.\n\nProgramme \nThe international training seminar is combined with a project meeting of one of EuroClio’s partner projects: “Teaching Europe to Enhance EU Cohesion”. In this research project educators from all 28 EU countries research the textbooks for history and another social science topic in the final years of compulsory education to find out how the EU and European integration is portrayed in the textbooks. Throughout the training seminar the team members to this project will join the majority of the programme\, but at times have closed working sessions. \nLogistics and Fees \n\n The seminar will take place in Vilnius\, Lithuania from 13-16 May 2016 (arrival 13 May morning\, departure 16 May).\n Upon registration\, participants will be asked to confirm their participation and fulfill the fee for the course at the latest at the actual course.\n Accommodation during the conference will not be arranged by the organizers.\n The course fee for 2.5 days is 125 euro in total per person including coffee breaks\, lunches\, dinners\, local travel and on-site learning.\n\nRegister Now\nRegistrations are open until 22 April 2016.
