Presented by Shannen Johnson, Learning and Engagement Officer, The Peace Museum and Emily Elsworth, Education Assistant, Royal Armouries.

This event is aimed at museum learning professionals and teachers, with a focus on KS2 learning.

Shannen and Emily will present their research into how sensitive issues surrounding war and conflict are approached and presented in museum learning. Topics covered will include the First World War and the impact of the Centenary and how organisations approach the topic of the Holocaust with young children.

The session will explore best practice models for teaching and learning about conflict and resolution, nationally and internationally and how you can apply these models within your own programmes.

This research has been supported through the GEM Yorkshire and Humberside ReachOut bursary scheme.

Light refreshments will be provided.
