RECREATE
Research Centre for Revitalizing Ancient Histories and Traditions in Education
Who We Are

RECREATE is a research centre that seeks to contribute to rendering K-12 curricula and classroom practices more balanced and inclusive in their representations, especially of traditionally marginalized ancient histories, cultures, and wisdom traditions both in Canada and globally. We do that through programs that research and seek to contribute to affecting positive change in teacher education and training; supporting existing educational resources and programs, and developing new ones; as well as seeking to support reform efforts within K-12 educational systems through actively engaging on both the policy and communal levels.
Seshat (Global History Databank)
Global Centre for Pluralism
World Education Research Association (WERA)
Our Partners
Seshat was founded in 2011 to bring together the most current and comprehensive body of knowledge about human history in one place. The huge potential of this knowledge for testing theories about political and economic development has been largely untapped. Their unique databank systematically collects what is currently known about the social and political organization of human societies and how civilizations have evolved over time.
This massive collection of historical information allows us and others to rigorously test different hypotheses about the rise and fall of large-scale societies across the globe and human history.
The Global Centre for Pluralism is an independent, charitable organization founded as a partnership by the Government of Canada and Prince Karim Al-Hussaini Aga Khan IV. When our differences are respected and valued, our societies thrive. Around the world, those that centre the respect, dignity and belonging of all people are more peaceful, prosperous and just. This requires deliberate actions on the part of all members of society—individuals, communities, institutions and governments.
The Centre works to influence perspectives, inform policies and inspire actions to advance pluralism. To do this, they work with policymakers, educators and community leaders around the world to amplify and implement the transformative power of pluralism, and to apply this in their work through a range of programs.
The World Education Research Association (WERA) is an association of national, regional, and international specialty research associations aimed at advancing education research as a scientific and scholarly field. Established on April 18, 2009 in San Diego, California, WERA aims to undertake initiatives that are global in nature and thus transcend what any one association can accomplish in its own country, region, or area of specialization.
Member associations are resolved to work together to address such issues as building capacity and interest in education research, advancing education research policies and practices, and promoting the use and application of education research around the world.
