Webinar “Remembrance of the Holocaust in wartime”

For almost 80 years, traditional forms and methods of honouring the victims of the Holocaust have been formed. One of the key narratives: “to study the history of the Holocaust in order to prevent it from happening again” has been formed as well. The war and the subsequent full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine have changed the context of the narrative about genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

So what challenges did Ukrainian society have to face?
How are the trends of commemorating the Holocaust victims changing?
Why is responsible commemoration more important than ever?
How can you incorporate the 2022-2023 invasion experience into your lessons and projects?

Come and talk about it at Anatolii Podolskyi and Vitalii Bobrov's webinar “Remembrance of the Holocaust in wartime”.
DATE: May 10, Wednesday, 17:00.
REGISTRATION FORM: in the first comment.
THE WEBINAR IS CONDUCTED BY:
Anatolii Podolskyi, PhD in history, director of the Ukrainian Center for Holocaust Studies
Vitalii Bobrov, coordinator of educational projects of the Ukrainian Center for Holocaust Studies, trainer, referent, author and editor of classes, curriculum developer, mentor in projects with adults.
The webinar will take place within the framework of the “Young people reflect about Holocaust and Second World War” project, which we are conducting jointly with Kyiv educational center “Tolerspace” with the support of the EVZ Foundation.

Date and time: May 10, Wednesday, 17:00
