Date: 2-3 June 2025
Location: Budapest, Hungary
Venue: Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE)
The event will focus on the challenges of historical education and commemoration of World War II, including acts of war crimes and genocide, and the experiences of occupation, imprisonment and forced labour, or displacement. Exploring methods, problems, and best practices in teaching, participants will engage in discussions and workshops, showcasing innovative methods and tools for historical education. Participants will discuss how to effectively teach younger generations, who are increasingly less likely to have direct contact with witnesses of history. This event will be part of an international information campaign by ENRS, planned for the 80th-anniversary of the end of World War II in 2025.
The event will be aimed at practitioners: history and civic education teachers, educators, and representatives of cultural institutions and memorial sites responsible for commemoration events and education programs.
