The Association for Historical Dialogue and Research (AHDR) invites you to the launch of the new publication entitled “Cyprus, A Classroom without Walls: A Teachers’ Guide to Engaging with Significant Sites” which provides support to educators and students of lower and upper secondary schools on their study visits to various sites across Cyprus with historic, cultural, geographical or any other form of significance.
