European Network of Testimony-based Digital Education: Development of Key Competences and Civic Engagement

The European Network of Testimony-based Digital Education: Development of Key Competences and Civic Engagement (ENTDE) project is supported by ERASMUS+ program of the European Commission (Call 2020 Round 1 KA2 - Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices; KA226 - Partnerships for Digital Education Readiness).

The project was inspired by the need for sustainable digital materials that offer a firm methodology rooted in democratic values that can also be adapted to various local contexts.

Closure of face-to-face teaching and a sudden shift to online and distance digital learning due to the Covid-19 crisis have shown that most teachers would need to be supported with finding, effectively using, and creating relevant, high-quality digital teaching materials.

Responding to the educational challenges created by Covid-19, the ENTDE project aims to support school educators by creating content that is digital, engaging, rooted in democratic values, promotes civic engagement and participation, and focused on developing key competences. In addition to content development, the project will also create training programmes on how to effectively use these teaching and learning materials.

To develop and deliver this project, a strategic partnership of four European organisations has been created. It includes Zachor Foundation, based in Hungary, OpenEye, in the Czech Republic, Jewish History Association of South Wales (JHASW), in Wales, UK, and human-ed, in the Netherlands.


Zachor Foundation

Zachor Foundation for Social Remembrance is a civil education non-profit organization that aims to support educators in using immersive methods to develop skill and competences. We draw attention to dangerous phenomena in society such as racism, antisemitism, and prejudice. We organize formal and non-formal educational programs for educators and students using memoirs and testimony from survivors and witnesses of genocidal violence.
