Conflict-history education, in particular, helps to replace fear and hatred with mutual understanding. While peace education has been explored across sub-Saharan Africa and beyond, curricular reforms often overlook teachers--despite their key role in achieving success.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilding on insights from education sciences, sociology, political sciences, memory studies and social psychology, this book introduces a novel and interdisciplinary framework to analyse secondary school teachers' engagement with conflict-history education, using both qualitative and quantitative methods. It focuses on three distinct locations--Kenya, Côte d'Ivoire, and the Democratic Republic of Congo--that differ in the intensity of violence experienced and the time elapsed since conflict ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis practice-oriented book aims at identifying teachers' needs to feel confident and competent in driving reconciliation in their classrooms and provides actionable policy recommendations and teaching strategies to support them in this essential role.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith contributions from Louis-Gervais Adomon Anoma, Mary Kange'the.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLine Kuppens is an assistant professor at the University of Amsterdam, and visiting fellow at the Centre for Research on Peace and Development, KU Leuven.
