Anti-Semitism Critical Education in Primary Schools: Historical and Religious Approaches
How is anti-Semitism critical education already developed in primary schools? This public colloquium at the University of Bielefeld addresses the question of how historical and religious education can inspire children to reflectively, respectfully, and human rights-oriented thinking.
Education Beyond Holocaust Education
The focus is on engaging with approaches that develop anti-Semitism critical learning not exclusively through Holocaust education. The lecture questions the significance of primary schools, religious education, and historical education for the development of a sensitive culture of remembrance.
Connecting Historical and Religious Perspectives
Arne Feldmann from Münster illuminates the connection between historical cultures, religious education, and pedagogical responsibility. It concerns the question of how Jewish history, present, and diversity can be conveyed in a differentiated manner without reproducing stereotypes or viewing Jewish life solely from the perspective of the Holocaust.
A Scientific Space for Exchange
The colloquium is aimed at students, educators, researchers, early-career scientists, and graduates. The event offers space for professional reflection, scientific exchange, and the joint search for sustainable concepts of anti-Semitism critical educational work in schools and society.
Religious Education as Responsibility
Religious education opens up conversational spaces about human dignity, remembrance, identity, and coexistence. In a plural society, it strengthens the ability to perceive religious traditions in a differentiated way, recognize prejudices, and take responsibility for respectful coexistence.
Visitors can expect a concentrated scientific impulse on a socially relevant topic. Those interested in history, religious education, primary schools, anti-Semitism prevention, and democratic education will experience an informative and stimulating event at the University of Bielefeld. Participation is free and public.
