»Education for Change«
Combining History Learning and Human Rights Education
in Formal, Non-formal and Higher Education
Book Launches & Symposium
29 & 30 September 2016, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany
What opportunities offer combinations of human
rights education and history learning/education
for the learners that further development of both
educational approaches? And what would such
a combination look like in formal, non-formal and
higher education?
The joint presentation of the newly published
Change handbook and the Crossing Borders
anthology provide ideas and answers from
theoretical and practice perspectives on
combining history learning/education and
human rights education approaches.
The symposium offers contributions by experts
as well as room for exchanges of ideas and
practical exercises, and the development of
strategies for implementing combined history
learning/education and human rights education
approaches.

Handbook for History Learning and Human
Rights Education in Formal, Non-formal
and Higher Education.
There will be dedicated workshops for secondary
school teachers, university lecturers involved
in teacher training, educators at museums and
memorial sites and educators in non-formal
education.
Throughout the event we will collect ideas
and discuss possibilities – such as creating a
network – to support and sustain the exchanges
on this combined approach.
Participants are invited to present their work
and materials on combining history learning/
education and human rights education at the
market place.
The working language of the book launches and the
symposium is English.
