On 19th, 20th and 21st November, Stakeholders from across Europe, North Africa and the Mediterranean region will convene in Alicante, Spain for a 3 day Conference on North-South Dialogue, “Education and Migration.” The conference, hosted by The European Movement International brings together actors from both shores on the double theme of Education and Migration in order to analyse experiences of citizens from the South and the North. The aim of the Congress is to define a line of conduct in these fields, starting from your experiences and this in the prospective of a larger cooperation between the two shores of the Mediterranean. Amongst the key speakers will be representatives of EUROCLIO partner organizations such as the Director of the Anna Lindh Foundation, Municipal representatives of Valencia and its surrounding area, EU Commissioners, Mr. José Riera, Spanish Ambassador for Mediterranean Affairs, Ministers in Education in Morrocco and Algeria, Mr. Pat Cox, Former President of the European Parliament and President of European Movement International and Vice-President of the European Movement International, ALESCO and Islamic Educational, Scientic and Cultural Organisation (ISESCO). With themes of migration so prevalent in EUROCLIO’s work in history education, particularly with current running projects Past, The Future of Europe and Discovering Diversity, the conference will be an opportunity to discuss the role of migration in history education and lobby for a more active political community in addressing history education in the Euro-Med region.
