The Association for Historical Dialogue and Research was founded in 2003 by a group of visionary Greek-speaking and Turkish-speaking Cypriot educators. Since its foundation, the AHDR has enlisted members from various ethnic, linguistic, and professional backgrounds working at various educational levels in Cyprus, making the first steps towards a greater effort to defend and promote open dialogue and research on issues regarding history and history teaching in order to strengthen peace, stability and critical thinking.

​

The AHDR recognizes the values of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the European Convention on Human Rights, the UNESCO aims on education, and the Council of Europe’s recommendations relevant to history teaching.
