Supplementary Educational Materials
The development of innovative and practical supplementary educational materials for educators and young people is one of major initiatives of the Association. It is our objective that such materials will help to foster multiperspectivity, historical understanding and critical thinking amongst educators and students.
Policy Papers
Ideas described in AHDR’s History Education Reform Proposal and Policy Paper on Education provide the basis and guiding principles of our work: how the AHDR sees history education, and how it envisions education in a multicultural, multilingual, and multi-faith society in Cyprus. Available in English, Greek and Turkish.
Peace Education
In the context of AHDR’s efforts to promote a Culture of Peace through education at a local, national and international level, the organization has engaged in a series of Peace Education projects and activities. These have showcased the impact of deconstructing stereotypes and increasing contact in creating a paradigm shift in education as a prerequisite for laying the foundations for sustainable peace.
