HtSTORY Of EUROCUO

History plays an important ,role in building .and maintaining democracy a.nd strengthening m.utua understanding between differenticountries and people in Europe. At the same time history edu tion i s frequ,ently used as a vehtcle for pfilitical ,prop.aganda, hatred and aggression. After the c d

if , 6 @ , lapseof the Iron Curtain"in'l989 hisforji educators, o'rganisatioris aiid gdvehweh-ts felt the,urge'tc

n p ~ . e F i f h&ii@ discuss an alteinative approach to the learni.ng and teach7rig of history. The rene$ed cdntact! ;&hb;&&$& a d between Past and West offered the opportunity to reiriforce a history education, which acts as i

tool'to foster integration, peace and itabiliiy in Europe.

Supported by the Council of Europe, delegates fiom 14 countries, representing 18 Histor) Teachers Associations, decided in 1992 te establish EUROCLIO, the ~ u r o ~ e a n organisation foi history education. This prganisaeiqn supports thelearning and teachinl; of history by sharing ant

exchanging kn.ow!edge and professional experience. In 1993 EUR.OCLIO, the European Standiq Conference of HirtoryTeachers'Associ.ati,o,ns was officially founded. D,u{i,ng the foJl,owi,vg yew EUROCLIO grew rapidly and in 2001 EUROCLIO represents 66 memlaer organisations fr0.m 41 (mostly.) Eufo'pa-ri coun'rries.

EUKOCLIO is r6coghised as 'memtier of the Liaisdti Cbmmittee of the Noh-GoYefnmelita Organisations enjbying conswliative statiis with the Council of Europe.

The most important aim of EUROCLIO is to strengthen the cooperation between history educa tor6 .io Europe and:en.co.urage neWork.i,ng and sharing.inform,atipn. EUROCLIO supports peace stabilkty and democracy by promoting democratic val~es a.nd p.m?esses in history and .responsi Me history education. It also aims to promote the international dimension and awareness in tht

Workshop Teaching Europe, Florence, Ikily. The seminar in Florence focused on (history) educat~on as one of the spheres in which Europe re-thought and re-taught. The speakers were asked about topics, wh~ch were related to the id, of Europe, which is often entrenched with that of the nation and to unravel how the tlrne a1 space of Eumpe and nation have transformed, and coll~ded, over time. The conference scrutlr sed the teaching of both these constructs and the~r ~nev~table intercourse and contingency schools, schoolbooks, and curr~cula The focal areas were nationalis~ng education, Europe in te) books and projecting Europe, recasting the nation. EUROCLIO was asked to shed light on h tory on the agenda of European htstory educators in a sesslon, whtch cr~t~caily assessed a1

Lectures and workshops In January EUROCLIO was inv~ted to shed light on a variety of issues related to the teachfng a1 history in Europe. The Koerber Foundation in Hamburg, Germany ~nv~ted us to speak for t h ~ national and internat~onal student competit~on network about EUROCLIO. The talk focused on work, the challenges and its impact. In May a conference was organ~sed by the Dutch sectlon of the International Holocaust Ta Force and hosted approximately 300 guests from at least 50 countries. It offered a varlety of ac v~ties such as vis~ts to Holocaust sites, plenary lectures, workshops and participation in t solemn War commemorations 4 May and the festrve Liberation celebrat~ons of 5 May. Ma actors in the field of Holocaust education were present in the conference. The organisation asked EUROCLlO to lead the two workshops on teacher tralning on 3 May a1 to participate in the concluding panel on 4 May.
