The conference intends to explore how empires\u2019 and colonialism&#8217;s historical legacies continue to influence educational systems, curricula, and educational media in various global contexts. Participants will have the opportunity to examine the role of education in perpetuating or challenging existing power structures and social inequalities. Additionally, the conference will address strategies for decolonizing education and fostering pedagogies that promote reconciliation, social justice, and intercultural understanding. The conference aims to facilitate reflection on local, regional, national, and global perspectives, integrating these viewpoints from diverse geographical and chronological contexts.<\/p>\n<p>By proposing to bring together academics and educators from several disciplines, this conference seeks to promote the exchange of ideas and methodologies, potentially leading to new perspectives and opportunities for collaborative research. This interdisciplinary dialogue aims to contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the complex relationships between the old and new empires and colonialism, their legacies, and their contemporary impact on education.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>We welcome contributions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>on the role of educational institutions in legitimising systems of imperial domination and (post)colonialism<\/li>\n<li>on representations of empires in national narratives in educational media, e.g. ideologies, stereotypes and myths about empires<\/li>\n<li>on new educational materials and the empires\u2019 and colonial legacy in the digital age<\/li>\n<li>on post-colonial approaches, such as focussing on processes of resistance and challenges to colonial narratives and pedagogies<\/li>\n<li>on memory culture and memory practice with regard to empire and colonialism<\/li>\n<li>on empire and environmental impacts<\/li>\n<li>on links between history and social science education, e.g. on racism and social inclusion or exclusion with regard to empire and colonialism<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The conference will be held in English.
