It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that the IHRA announces the passing of our Honorary Chairman, Professor Yehuda Bauer.
Held on the anniversary of the 1938 November Pogroms, the Thessaloniki meetings focused on countering Holocaust distortion, facilitating access to Holocaust collections, and growing the IHRA membership.
On 8 November, the IHRA presented the twelve-minute explanatory film Holocaust Distortion: A Growing Threat and the publication Holocaust Distortion: Contexts, Influences, and Examples in its webinar on Holocaust distortion. Using examples from various countries, it explains how distortion and its various manifestations threaten Holocaust memory today.
The November pogroms, also known as Kristallnacht, were a series of attacks against Jews throughout Germany and parts of Austria on November 9-10, 1938. To commemorate the devastation of the November pogroms, events will be held in many IHRA member countries, both virtually and in person.
The Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde has launched a mission to clarify whether there could be a Holocaust grave site linked to the forced evacuation operation from the Stutthof concentration camp.
All around the world, opponents of COVID-19 measures invoke the genocide against the Jewish people by Nazi Germany and its collaborators to paint themselves as victims, and their governments as persecutorial regimes.
The IHRA joined world leaders, and international organizations including the CoE, EU, FRA, OSCE, the UN, and UNESCO at the Remember – ReAct Forum, Malmö.
The Strategy proposes measures to prevent all forms of antisemitism, protect and foster Jewish life, and promote Holocaust remembrance.
To meet its commitments, the IHRA is developing a project to map memory and Holocaust denial laws that will facilitate an objective dialogue about the awareness, efficacy and deployment of such legislation.
