The educational program Zajedno Jači (Stronger Together) in Croatia

Pages 351-353 | Published online: 05 Dec 2011
 

Abstract

In this paper, we explore intercultural learning undertaken through the educational program Stronger Together. The program Stronger Together was created in 1998 in order to support and educate teachers working with children in post-war regions of Croatia using intercultural education and cooperative learning as tools for addressing problems among school children as well as teachers and parents relating to such issues as intolerance, nationalism, and discrimination. These were magnified by the devastating civil war which took place in the Republic of Croatia from 1991 to 1995. The program focused on communication and conflict-resolution methodologies based on the principles of interculturalism, as well as human rights and children’s rights to education.
