This monograph is one of APCEIU's EIU Best Practices Series, which aims to encourage educators, scholars, and activists to implement and share local initiatives on EIU. The Series No.32 introduces two cases in which primary and secondary school teachers in Beijing were trained to promote EIU in respective communities. As teachers developed their EIU competence and awareness, students learned to be more open-minded, respectful, and tolerant. The issue highlights the important role educators have in instilling EIU values and shaping perception.
