Manifesto for Education - Empowering Educators and Schools Year of publication: 2015 Corporate author: Radicalisations Awareness Network (RAN) The manifesto is a call to action to help empower the very group of people who have the potential to be some of the most influential in the lives of our young people and to help them truly prevent violent extremism. As it is impossible for schools to solve the problem alone and immediately, on different levels (the educator, the school, the partners and the government) suggestions are made to inspire interventions that could start tomorrow (short term) and help establish a sustainable approach for the future (long term). These insights are mostly based on experiences in secondary education but can easily be translated to primary, vocational and higher education.

Educar para una ciudadanía global: construir un mundo justo desde la escuela Year of publication: 2009 Author: Colette Grech | Roderick Mallia | William Grech Corporate author: Conectando Mundos Consortium (Cidac, inizjamed, Intermon Oxfam, Ucodep) This publication is based on an initiative about the development education, intercultural education, popular education, the education of values, human rights education, education for sustainability, education for peace, education for gender equality, etc. The pedagogical proposal of Global Citizenship Education aspires to integrate in a coherent and challenging vision all these themes, keeping them in a close relationship with one another and taking into consideration the (increasing) interdependence of human beings living in a planet whose sustainability is under threat. This book is the fruit of a process that was triggered off by the joint effort of four European development NGOs, namely Cidac, Inizjamed, Intermón Oxfam and Ucodep within the frame of a project co-financed by the European Commission. These organisations set for themselves the objective to promote the acknowledgment and the inclusion of the contents and the methodology of Global Citizenship Education in the formal educational contexts in their respective countries, in order to kick-start a process of change in attitudes, values, and the beliefs of the pupils. Thanks to the initiative and efforts of the above-mentioned four organisations, and through various meetings and seminars carried out over the last three years in Spain, Italy, Portugal and Malta, groups of educators have been able to come face-to-face with each other, exchange experiences and reflect on the role of formal education with respect to the challenges of our times. Among the other experiences, the publication contains that of a key moment in the process. This took place in July 2008 in Cortona, a small and beautiful Tuscan city close to the border with Umbria, and in which many educators shared the benefit of what was the first international encounter of educators for global citizenship. The Cortona experience, in which around ninety teachers coming from Spain, Portugal, Malta, Italy, the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica have participated, was one of the stages – the starting point, in fact – of a process and a relationship that it is our aim to develop at the regional, national and international levels. In this publication, therefore, one can find theoretical cues put forward at Cortona that encourage educators to share their experiences and to compare the work done by different groups.This publication has two parts. The first part contains contributions of a theoretical type, whereas the second part concentrates on the educational experiences of the participants in the Cortona meeting. 
The Counter Terrorist Classroom: Countering Extremism Through (Religious) Education? Year of publication: 2015 Author: Liam Gearon The article identifies international cases– from the United States, Europe, and the United Nations– of an emergent interface of religion, education and security. This is manifest in the uses of religion in education to counter religious extremism, the notional “counter terrorist classroom”. To avoid an over-association of extremism with religion, the article provides some historical reminders that the post-Enlightenment centuries were marked by political extremism, particularly in the phenomenon that came to be known as totalitarianism. The Counter Terrorist Classroom: Countering Extremism Through (Religious) Education? Year of publication: 2015 Author: Liam Gearon Cet article identifie des cas d’interaction croissante entre les sphères du religieux, de l’éducation et le domaine sécuritaire - aux États-Unis, en Europe, et au sein des Nations Unies. Par exemple, l’intégration du religieux dans l’éducation afin de lutter contre l’extrémisme religieux, la théorique « lutte contre le terrorisme au sein des salles de classe ». Pour éviter une trop forte association entre extrémisme et religion, l’auteur procède à quelques rappels historiques et souligne le fait qu’à la fin du siècle des Lumières et jusqu’à aujourd’hui, les sociétés ont été marquées par diverses formes d’extrémisme politique, comme le montre notamment l’exemple les totalitarismes du XXe siècle. Countering Terrorism through Education of Populations: The Case of African Countries Year of publication: 2011 Author: Simon M. Lelo Terrorism has become a major concern of current governments. African countries are also involved in counter- terrorism but, due to several internal security and development problems, their effective participation in the combat against terrorism is very limited. They need capacity and skills in order to participate actively in countering terrorism. Education is one of the most appropriate ways for preparing African countries to prevent terrorism. Education provides not only knowledge but also capacity to make informed decisions, strategies and policies. The international community should help African countries to strengthen their education through specialized and general training programmes. Countering Terrorism through Education of Populations: The Case of African Countries Year of publication: 2011 Author: Simon M. Lelo Le terrorisme est devenu un enjeu de premier ordre pour les gouvernements actuels. Les pays africains prennent également part à la lutte contre le terrorisme ; cependant, à cause de problèmes de sécurité nationale et de développement, leur participation effective dans le combat contre le terrorisme reste très limitée. Ces pays manquent de moyen pour pouvoir y participer de manière plus active. Ainsi, l'éducation doit être privilégiée afin de soutenir les efforts de prévention dans les pays africains. L’éducation n'apporte pas seulement des connaissances aux apprenants, elle permet également de prendre des décisions, et de mettre en place des stratégies et des mesures de manière informée. La communauté internationale doit aider les pays africains à renforcer leurs systèmes éducatifs à travers divers programmes de formation.
