Description

6th OHTE Annual Conference Manipulating History, Undermining Democracy By bringing together policymakers, educators, researchers and young people, the 6th OHTE Annual Conference reaffirms that history education is not a secondary concern but a central democratic safeguard. “Manipulating history, undermining democracy” highlights the risks societies face when historical knowledge is misused or devalued. Ensuring that citizens can critically interpret the past is essential for understanding present challenges and contributing to a democratic future grounded in accuracy, pluralism and respect for human dignity.
