DESCRIPTION:Economics has played a central role throughout history\, and th
	e study of economic crises is particularly important for understanding how
	 societies demonstrate resilience and adaptability in times of financial c
	ollapse. From the Great Depression of the 1930s to the financial crisis of
	 2008\, and from the monetary crises of the 19th century to those of medie
	val and ancient times\, these events offer vital lessons on risk managemen
	t\, public policies\, and the social effects of economic downturns. Teachi
	ng about these crises transforms history into a key tool for understanding
	 contemporary challenges. It encourages students to explore multiple persp
	ectives which are essential to grasping the complexity of economic crises 
	and for preventing the repetition of past mistakes. Integrating the study 
	of economic crises into history education helps students sharpen their cri
	tical thinking skills\, understand the origins and consequences of economi
	c collapse\, and analyse contemporary economic issues - preparing them to 
	actively engage in debates about the future of European societies.\n\nDuri
	ng its 5th Annual Conference the Observatory on History Teaching in Europe
	 (OHTE) will publish its second Thematic Report on  "Economic crises in hi
	story teaching" - the result of extensive collaboration with education aut
	horities of the OHTE member states\, experts from the Leibniz Institute fo
	r Educational Media / Georg-Eckert Institute\, under the supervision of th
	e OHTE Scientific Advisory Council. It provides a clear overview of how ec
	onomic crises – their origins\, effects\, and societal impacts are taught 
	in secondary-level history education.\n\nWith one keynote speech (OHTE Tal
	ks) and an Oxford style debate (OHTE Debate) involving history students an
	d senior figures in politics and academia\, the upcoming OHTE Annual Confe
	rence promises to raise the level of discussion on the role of history in 
	understanding the present and shaping the future.
