Which better place than a school to promote critical thinking in young people and educate them on how to dismantle rumours and stereotypes that hinder peaceful and productive coexistence in diverse society? In this month of September, when most young people all around Europe found their way back to school, the Intercultural Cities programme, the RECI, the NGO diversitat. and AntiRumours Global are happy to launch the AR Guide in the Educational field.
The Guide has been produced in response to the strong demand of ICC member cities that expressed the wish to see the Anti-rumours methodology adapted to schools and educational centres.
With the sponsorship of the ICC programme, this year RECI members will carry out pilot tests in different schools to put the Guide into practice.
The Anti-rumour Guide in the Educational field is available in English and Spanish. A similar guide has been produced also in Italian by the Italian network of Intercultural Cities.
