The Nineties

Almost half of children over the age of twelve have no idea what the Velvet Revolution was or why Czechoslovakia was divided. We have prepared a new educational project "The Nineties". We're charting our modern history in an engaging and unpretentious way. Please, support us and help to complete "The Nineties" and improve the ability of young people to think about this part of our history critically.

In the 1990s, Czech civil society was for the first time openly confronted with the reality of the West, the Czech economy clashed with the powerful force of financial capital, and Czech culture tried to seek its first sponsors... 

SURVEY "THE NINETIES THROUGH THE EYES OF YOUNG PEOPLE"

In cooperation with the analytical institute STEM, we organised a survey among young people aged 15 to 20 at the end of 2024. It shows what associations young people have with the 1990s, how they evaluate its contribution and influence on the present. To a significant extent, the survey also comments on the teaching of the 1990s in schools.

The survey results can be found here (available only in Czech):

Although the nineties transformed our society in many ways and they are a key period in our modern history, the school curriculum has long paid little attention to it. It has to be changed and we want to help. The younger generation should understand the modern history of their country, and be able to look at it critically and with enlightenment. 

Help us make "The Nineties" project a reality so we can offer it to as many schools in the Czech Republic as possible.
