' Declaration on promoting citizenship and the common values of freedom, tolerance and non-discrimination through education’ adopted by EU Education National Ministers in Paris in March 2015 aims to enhance the acquisition of social, civic and intercultural competences, as well as critical-thinking and mutual understanding, foster respect and intercultural dialogue through all forms of learning, understanding and ownership of fundamental values, and combat discrimination on all grounds, in particular, as regards students at risk of marginalisation or social exclusion.
Built on the Paris Declaration and ETUCE resolution on ‘ Education for Democracy’ adopted in the multiannual conference of Belgrade in December 2016, the project covers the following topics:
- Civic education and democratic-school culture;
- Teaching in multicultural learning contexts for intercultural dialogue;
- Teaching controversial and sensitive issues;
- E-safety issues: Misinformation, digital responsibility and ICT critical-thinking;
- School-leadership and ‘the whole school approach’;
- Inclusive education as a tool to prevent violent radicalisation and extremism.
