The V International Conference of Pedagogy, with the title “Education and Culture of Peace: Memory, Truth and Forgiveness” will take place in January 18-20, 2024. This Conference aims to facilitate the presentation and discussion of papers and research on the place and role of Education in promoting and implementing a culture of peace, particularly in the vectors of memory, truth –which demands justice –, and forgiveness.

Presentation

The V International Conference of Pedagogy, with the title “Education and Culture of Peace: Memory, Truth and Forgiveness”, intends to constitute a space for reflection and sharing of ideas and experiences capable of contributing to a deepening of the paths leading to a more peaceful and harmonious society.

The current situation, marked by strong military, social, religious and political conflicts, as well as by the growing wave of migrants and refugees, requires a deep thought about the driving role of education for the understanding and good relations between persons and peoples. This dimension involves, at least, the three major vectors that constitute the main themes of this conference: (a)memory; (b) truth and (c) forgiveness.

The Conference is directed to academics and professionals, researchers and teachers, governmental and non-governmental organisations, civil society, educators and students, school administrators and directors and all those interested in the theme of Education and Culture of Peace.
