Education for Democracy and Diversity
CEC supports education that encourages democratic values and diversity in European society. Education is a core means for promoting values of peace and reconciliation, plurality, diversity, intercultural dialogue, and democratic participation.
In this area, CEC monitors and contributes to the work of the European Institutions, and holds a participatory status at the Steering Committee for Education Policy and Practice of the Council of Europe.
Thematic Group on Education, Democracy and Diversity facilitates CEC’s work.
For more information about our work in this area, please contact Rev. Sören Lenz.
