How do we teach difficult histories without reinforcing division, trauma, or prejudice? How can education create space for dialogue, critical thinking, and democratic citizenship?🌍
Join our upcoming webinar “Teaching Difficult Histories, Contested Memories and Democratic Citizenship”, organised by CARDET and AHDR within the framework of the European project REM Heritage.

💬 The webinar will examine how remembrance, collective memory, identity, and experiences from divided societies shape the way history is taught today. Participants will explore practical and inclusive approaches to teaching contested histories, while reflecting on the role of education in fostering empathy, multiperspectivity, and democratic engagement.
Bringing together researchers, educators, and practitioners, the session aims to encourage meaningful dialogue on the challenges and responsibilities of history education in contemporary societies.
