THE HOLOCAUST AS A STARTING POINT Ukrainian teachers training in France

insidethegatesFrom February 9 to 12, Paris hosted the scholarly and methodological seminar Holocaust as a Starting Point, organized by the Shoah Memorial in cooperation with the Ukrainian Center for Holocaust Studies. The program featured lectures, workshops, museum practice, and excursions.

Ukrainian teachers gained new insights into the Holocaust in France, including issues of collaboration and the role of the Vichy government. They visited the Drancy internment camp, explored practices of Holocaust commemoration in Paris and its suburbs, and learned about approaches to teaching the subject in French schools.

This educational journey combined profound content with strong emotions, offering valuable experience and serving as a kind of retreat for Ukrainian educators in Paris.
