Education for a Just Society

The education system in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) perpetuates ethnic and other divisions by teaching separate and often contradictory accounts of history, with different curricula for culture and language classes, and physical separation of students based on ethnicity. Recent studies show that the BiH education system does not teach universal values of citizenship, tolerance and inclusion to BiH children and youth, but instead discriminates against children on the basis of their ethnic, religious, political and economic background.
