FUNDACIÓN VÍCTIMAS DEL TERRORISMO 95 - ENGLISH

EDUCATION AND COEXISTENCE 35 In short, this is another instrument within the broad educational project of the Vic- tims of Terrorism Foundation, with near- ly two decades of classroom experience. More than fifty thousand students from over four hundred schools have taken part, helping promote peaceful coexistence, free of violence, and build the values and atti- tudes essential to our society today. A new edition of awards that invite classrooms to think, create, and commit themselves to a more just, free society without violence. The FVT, a state public-sector foun- dation, has among its purposes the promotion and dissemination of de- mocratic values, the defense of human rights, plurality, and freedom, as well as fostering a better understanding of the reality of victims of terrorism in our society. In line with these objectives, this competition was created and has become one of the Foundation's flags- hip projects. The rules for this call were published at the end of 2025, in compliance with Royal Decrees 126/2014 of February 28 and 1105/2014 of December 26, which regulate the basic curriculum for primary education, compulsory secondary educa- tion, and baccalaureate, and include spe- cific provisions on educational awareness and information actions. Over the years, these awards have become a channel of expression and closeness be- tween young people and victims of terro- rism. Through essays, drawings, teaching projects, and audiovisual materials, thou- sands of students have conveyed messa- ges of hope, peace, and solidarity that the Foundation has brought to the victims themselves, turning school creativity into a gesture of support and recognition.
