The Armed Forces and Education: proposals for a normalization (DIEEEO05-2012)

There currently seems to be consensus about the need for the standardization of our Armed Forces’ image in the Educational field. The subject of “Education and Citizenship” has ensured a space in the curricula of primary and secondary education. A major effort has been undertaken to provide
curricular proposals relating to the Culture of Peace in these educational stages. However, the author of this paper considers that there is still a long way to go until we can reach a complete normalization of the image of the institution in charge of Defence among our youth.
Defence culture and the promotion of a new Military Training model are proposed here as the key points required linking Education and Armed Forces.
Technology can be a great ally to promote these two issues. This is why the creation of an educational portal of Defence is proposed, to grant access to information resources, curriculum content and information about Defence culture and the new Military Training model.
