Together with the #appliedhistory forum on 'weaponized history', Corvus also organized a small expert workshop in Brussels. Great insights from @Christophe_Fir @florencesn @flobigge @CsillaAriese @PieterVdHeede @MaartenVanDijck @SoenViolet @Adriatisch Iwona Gusc and Rob O'Dell!
Many thanks to ambassador @APranckevicius and @LithuaniaInEU for hosting our forum on 'Weaponized history'. The arguments of Laimonas Briedis, @_ivovdw, @MGVerbergt and Donatas Kupciunas will certainly lead to further conversation between historians, politicians, and the public!
Some 📸 from Thursday's panel discussion on "Weaponized pasts around Europe," organised in light of the #Vilnius700 anniversary.
Historians, academics and audience members at the Perm Rep 🇱🇹🇪🇺 discussed the politicisation of history, which is becoming more and more dangerous.
