Normative and Pedagogical Challenges - 6th Georg Arnhold International Summer School
Braunschweig, Germany
25 – 29 June 2019
This year's summer school will focus on curriculum changes affecting Global Citizenship Education and Citizenship Education (GCE-CE) and the introduction of a global dimension into the citizenship education (CE) curriculum. Particular emphasis will be given to the pedagogical, social and political challenges that emerge from GCE-CE curricula, and their implementation. These challenges will be explored specifically against the background of globalization processes and the current growth of populist nationalist politics. Moreover, the summer school will discuss challenges from the perspectives of a range of different stakeholders (schools, teachers, students, NGOs, INGOs, and state education systems) and address the diverse challenges to GCE-CE in different social, political and economic contexts.

The GEI invites submission of original contributions that draw upon diverse contexts, theories and methods and aim to address the importance of GCE-CE and its challenges. We are particularly, although not exclusively, interested in contributions which explore questions such as:
- How GCE-CE should be understood in its role enabling young people to act politically within and beyond the state level?
- What is the role of GCE-CE in an increasingly polarized social, political and economic reality?
- Can GCE-CE promote inclusive active membership, belonging and global awareness and if so, how?
- We would also like to focus more specifically on understanding how schools and teachers implement GCE-CE in specific contexts, how they articulate its aims and develop practices accordingly.
Applicants are requested to explain how their proposal addresses the theme of the summer school as outlined above.
