EUSTORY Youth Activities

How can the confrontation with history foster a better understanding of the present and shape the future of Europe and its neighbors? At EUSTORY Summits, international history festivals, as well as in multiple digital projects, winners of national history competitions of the EUSTORY Network use history as a laboratory for international understanding.

They reflect on their perspectives regarding historical and current political questions in an unrestricted environment and develop innovative formats for a multi-faceted culture of commemoration.

“I want to deal with facts that did not make it into history books.”
