📢 How do cultural heritage institutions connect people with the past through education?

At EuroClio we believe that meaningful history education happens when educators and cultural heritage professionals work together.

In partnership with Europeana, we are gathering insights from museums, archives, libraries, and heritage organisations to better understand how educational programmes and resources are developed, what challenges institutions face, and where additional support is needed.
The survey findings will help inform future initiatives aimed at strengthening collaboration between the heritage and education sectors across Europe.
If your organisation works with learners, teachers, schools, or wider communities, we invite you to share your experience.

🗓️ The survey is open until 30 June.
👉 Participate here: https://survey.zohopublic.eu/zs/jDBxpO

We would greatly appreciate your support in sharing this call with colleagues and networks working in cultural heritage and education. We still need your help!

Your response would be greatly appreciated.
