In 2016, the Council of Europe issued the “Competences for Democratic Culture”, a document which highlights various competences and skills that we should help our students develop to be active and engaged citizens. In this session, Ann-Laure Liéval (EuroClio Ambassador and member of the EuroClio Board) and Benny Christensen (EuroClio Ambassador and member of the Historiana Teaching and Learning Team) will (1) introduce the Council of Europe Competences for Democracy and its role in history education, (2) walk us through their approach to develop a lesson plan based on the Council of Europe "Butterfly", (3) share several practical examples.
