Learning how to handle controversial issues in schools and other education settings
A good practice guide
David Kerr, Ted Huddleston
Council of Europe
Livre numérique
Learning how to deal with controversial issues is at the heart of education
for democratic citizenship and human rights education. Highlighting best
practices from case studies across Europe, this guide offers innovative
approaches and practical tools to handle controversy in schools effectively.
Controversy and controversial issues are at the centre and at all levels of
our democratic societies. This means that learning how to deal with such
issues must always be at the heart of an effective education for democratic
citizenship and human rights education (EDC/HRE). That learning takes place in
schools and other education settings as children and young people progress in
their education from early years, through primary, lower secondary and upper-
secondary phases, into tertiary and higher education and beyond. The Council
of Europe has an outstanding record in promoting education for democratic
citizenship, human rights education and intercultural dialogue, and in
fostering and teaching about the importance of democratic culture. It is
therefore fitting that the Council of Europe, in partnership with the European
Union, through the Joint Programme “Democratic and Inclusive School Culture in
Operation” (DISCO) – formerly known as the Human Rights and Democracy in
Action Pilot Projects Scheme – has helped to facilitate the creation of this
very timely good practice guide, which complements the manuals Teaching
controversial issues and Managing controversy.
