Please join us as we celebrate the launch of History Can Bite, which includes 15 original contributions and draws upon different contexts, theories and methods to shed light on questions relevant to the general theme of history education in divided and post-conflict societies. The publication provides critical insights into approaches adopted by curricula, textbooks, and teachers around the world when teaching about the past in the wake of civil war and mass violence, discerning some of the key challenges and opportunities involved in such endeavors.

Co-editors, Denise Bentrovato and Karina V. Korostelina will discuss their findings from the book project. Additionally, Dr. Wendy Anne Kopisch and Katharina Baier, coordinaters of the Georg Arnhold Program in Education for Sustainable Peace at the Georg Eckert Institute for International Textbook Research in Braunschweig, Germany will be presenting about the fellowship program.
