capture_6The European Foundation of Human Rights (EFHR) would like to inform you about an upcoming conference, organized by the Civic Education Lecturers Association (CELA).

CELA is calling for the submission of abstracts for the Second International Conference on the State of Civic Education in Post-Soviet Countries: from Formal to Informal Practices.

The main aim of the conference, which will be held on May 20-21 in Tbilisi, Georgia, is to invite educators, researchers, policy-makers, practitioners, and other interested individuals to explore theoretical frameworks related to civic education, educational policies, conceptualization of the notion of citizenship and civic values in the context of regime transformation and democratic development following the break-up of the Soviet Union.

The main themes include Minorities: integration or segmentation, Civic education: policy-making and policy implementation and Civic culture, consciousness, identity; their transformation and trajectories.

Selected papers will be published as part of the conference proceedings. The working languages of the conference and accompanying panel discussions will be English, Russian and Georgian.

We at EFHR encourage interested parties – especially educators, researchers and Doctoral Students – to consider applying to be a part of this event. CELA are particularly interested to receive submissions from Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia.
