2005 is the European Year of Citizenship through Education. The aim is to launch throughout Europe a campaign to popularise and put into practice existing education for democratic citizenship policies and programmes.
HREA will be actively involved in the European Year and has partnered with the Council of Europe, the intergovernmental organisation based in Strasbourg (France) that has initiated the European Year. HREA and the Council of Europe have a long history of successful collaborations in the areas of awareness raising about human rights, teacher training, and the training of human rights defenders.
HREA will advise the Council of Europe on matters relating to human rights education and will also be involved in collaborative trainings and conferences throughout the European Year of Citizenship through Education.
