East Asian education unions unite for quality peace education Understanding that history is often distorted and that political forces often interfere with education systems and curricula, Chinese, Korean and Japanese teachers are exploring their shared past to teach students for a better future. Peace education equals human rights education The Japan Teachers Union (JTU), China’s National Committee of the Educational, Scientific, Cultural, Health and Sports Workers’ Union, and the Korean Teachers and Education Workers Union (KTU), came together on August 3 for their annual conference which explores teaching practices for peace in these three Asian countries. Recognising that the three countries have been at war in the past and the history they share still impacts the lives of students today, educators have focused on how to teach that history in an accurate and relevant way.
