International Training ‘More than just one truth?’

Today has ended a five-day training entitled International Youth Workers Training ‘More than just one truth? Tools and perspectives for historical and political education’. The event, organised at the Krzyżowa International Conference Centre, was aimed at youth workers and teachers and educators who are active in the field of historical and political education. Our Museum was represented by Dominik Hada from the Department of Education and Exhibitions.

The training featured an interactive exchange of new perspectives and innovative tools and methods for youth education. The purpose of the project was to provide the participants with a broad range of methods and ideas useful in (traditional, hybrid and digital) teaching, fostering tolerance and mutual understanding among young people and counteracting such occurrences as nationalism, racism, hate speech and one-sided views on the past.

In October will take place the second part of the training, this time in Trebnitz (Germany), and the third one is planned to be hold in the first half of the next year in Sarajevo (Bosnia-Herzegovina).

The organisers of the event are: the House of German-Polish Cooperation, Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen (ifa) e.V., Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe, Trebnitz Castle Education and Exchange Centre, and the History Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
