The two seminars on human rights policy and human rights education were honoured with an award for innovative teaching projects by the Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Department of the University of Koblenz-Landau.

Since the winter semester 2015/16 Bachelor and Master thesis in political science in the field of peace and conflict research can be supervised by Dr. Nina Engwicht and Junior Professor Janpeter Schilling.

Since autumn 2014 the Peace Academy Rhineland-Palatinate supports efforts to establish a peace and conflict studies program at the University of Koblenz-Landau. We are therefore pleased that the Department of Social and Cultural Studies at the University of Koblenz-Landau succeeded in anchoring the topic of human rights education as a focal and multidisciplinary reference point in the training of future teachers (Project Human Rights Education). We welcome and support the "Landauer Manifesto on Human Rights Education".
