Methodology
Non-formal education methods.
Impact
“Xenophobia Revisited” aimed at improving the participants’ work as multipliers in remembrance work and history education by the exchange of knowledge across national and geographical lines and thus enable them to incorporate the knowledge and approaches from other remembrance cultures into their own work. This way, it increased their competence in and knowledge of the inclusion of digital media into remembrance work and history education and their awareness of today’s history education as strongly connected to today’s public discourse and as a tool against extremist political ideologies, it heightened their awareness of the structural challenge of dealing with educating about history in the absence of living memory and ways to mitigate it, took stock of current methodologies of remembrance work and history education and evaluated them in light of the recent rise of far-right groups across Europe.

This project was awesome. Right there I “met” street workout. I got new knowledge and friends from Europe! The best part was our team exercise – water rafting. I had a looottt of fun with everybody and I learned that even if you cant talk in English, it’s still easy and possible to communicate 🙂
