Countering Hate With Education
Education transforms lives. The International March of The Living provides leadership in Holocaust education, strengthens education systems worldwide, and responds to contemporary global challenges through education. A major theme is human rights. We believe education is a tool to prevent violent extremism. We are witnessing a rise in anti-Semitic attacks worldwide. In response, we are scheduling an international live streamed broadcast from Auschwitz sponsored by The Miller Center for Community Protection and Resilience at Rutgers University, on April 20th at 5 PM Poland time.
Effectively communicating the messages of the Holocaust becomes increasingly challenging with time. The passing of survivors and the increase in anti-Semitism make this all the more important.
