Both as a research area and as a subject widely taught and studied in Universities and schools at all levels, history is undergoing a rapid transformation, often perceived as a crisis. The Network utilises the remarkable opportunities created by the swift expansion of contact between diverse European cultural and educational traditions to bring a supranational, diachronic and comparative approach to the study and teaching of history. The target groups are, first of all, students and young people, including school children, and those who are responsible for their formation: teachers and teachers associations, Universities and University professors including scientists and engineers; second, those who cultivate an historical outlook such as local, national and international historical bodies, associations and journals; finally, on a larger scale, the media, the general public and public opinion.
