Who We Are
The History Education Network/Histoire et Éducation en Réseau (THEN/HiER) is a collaborative network across the diverse fields of history, history education and school history teaching in Canada. It brings together people from across Canada and internationally to inform, carry out, critique, and implement research into history education.
We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and its Strategic Knowledge Clusters Program.
