Seminar on Teaching Holocaust History at High School in Chernivtsi

On 4-6 October 2024, Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University hosted a research and methodological seminar for university professors entitled ‘Teaching Holocaust History at High School’. The seminar was organised by the Ukrainian Center for Holocaust Studies in cooperation with and the financial support of the International Project “Tracks of Memory” of the Düsseldorf Jewish Community.

The seminar brought together 20 professors from 18 different regions of Ukraine to discuss how Holocaust history is taught in Ukrainian higher education institutions, the challenges they face, and to share best practices and their own teaching experiences.
The programme also included guest lectures, including Anatolii Podolskyi, director of the Ukrainian Centre for Holocaust Studies.
A special part of the programme was the performance Sidi Tal. Aydyshe Neshume on the stage of the Olha Kobylianska Chernivtsi Academic Regional Ukrainian Music and Drama Theatre.
All participants also received a set of UCHS publications and other books on genocide studies. Currently, the seminar participants are working together to create the basis for a future methodological guide for teaching Holocaust history in higher education.
