Messaging to Remember: The Past and Future of Holocaust and Genocide Education (FREE!) November 19, 2011

Bringing together leading international scholars to look at the past sixty years of Holocaust education in Europe and the US, this conference aims not only to offer a critical understanding of how the world’s youth are taught about traumatic events, but also to develop new methods, media and tools for teaching future generations.

Panels will focus on the different dimensions of transmission of the history of the Holocaust and will consider the incorporation of print, radio, photography, film, Youtube and the internet into education about the Shoah. Other more recent genocides will also be examined and considered for their impact on the future of Holocaust remembrance and education.
