Plenary Session 4 - Learning from history: strengthening Democracy

This session co-organised with the Observatory on History Teaching in Europe sought to explore history’s role in nurturing informed citizens and safeguarding the future of democracy.

How has democracy been understood and taught through history? From Athens to today, each era shapes our view of democracy’s promises and challenges.

History education shapes how we see democracy now and can help prevent past mistakes. In a time of rising populism, weakening rule of law, and global crises, this session explores history’s role in nurturing informed citizens and protecting democracy’s future.
