This event is organized by the Department of Legal Studies, Human RightS Initiative, Yehuda Elkana Center for Higher Education, and Vera and Donald Blinken Open Society Archives, and is a satellite event of the Council of Europe’s World Forum for Democracy held in Strasbourg on November 7-9, 2016. The Forum focuses on the relationship between education and democracy and seeks to explore how education can help bridge the social divide and become a real asset for our diverse democracies. The aim of the CEU satellite event is to offer a broad overview of the role of education in democratic transition through a panel discussion, and to bring together a poster session showcasing a few examples of good practices of human rights education and civic engagement outside the strictly taken academic world.
You are cordially invited to Turning the Classroom Inside Out: Educating for Democracy, Human Rights, and Open Society
