The HISTOLAB Award for Innovative School Projects in History Education goes to eight schools from France, Ireland, Serbia, Spain and Türkiye and one transnational project. The Award was presented to students and teachers from the winning schools during the HISTOLAB European Innovation Days in History Education 2024 taking place at the headquarters of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg.
The HISTOLAB Award for Innovative School Projects in History Education encourages students to share their interests and ideas, and to express their vision of how they want to learn about history.
Some 441 applications were submitted through a Call for projects that ran during winter 2023/2024. Students were asked to ruminate on their experiences with learning history, and to submit their ideas on how history teaching could be more effective in meeting their interests, while strengthening their understanding of democratic culture and the respect for human rights, as promoted by the Council of Europe.
