4th Annual Conference of the Observatory on History Teaching in Europe (OHTE) History in crisi(e)s?
The GEI and EFREC coordinated the second thematic report, 'Economic Crises in History Teaching,' for the Observatory on History Teaching in Europe (OHTE) of the Council of Europe. The report's key findings will be presented at OHTE's 4th annual conference, which will take place on 5–6 December 2024 in the Hemicycle of the Palais de l'Europe in Strasbourg.
The OHTE report on “Economic Crises in History Teaching” analyses how economic crises are approached in both curricula and textbooks in secondary school history education and includes an exploratory study on teachers' experiences across the member states. Given that economic crises represent a fundamental challenge for individual lives and democratic governance, the report aims to investigate how young people can use knowledge of the past to take on the challenges of the present and future.
