Description
This European Remembrance topic under the Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values Programme (CERV) is managed by the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA). It supports projects examining how colonialism, enslavement, imperialism and migration shape contemporary inequalities, discrimination and exclusion in European societies. Its goals include combating structural racism, empowering affected communities and challenging stereotypes through recognition of their historical roots.
Supported work includes anti-racism education, historical literacy, research, exhibitions, public debates, and collecting, preserving and disseminating testimonies, archives and community knowledge. Projects may explore Roma history and culture, female migration, or migration linked to war, persecution, economic change, colonisation and decolonisation. Intersectional approaches involving People of African descent, Jews, Roma, overseas citizens and other minorities are encouraged. Projects should have a European dimension; transnational partnerships are particularly encouraged.
