THE WORLD HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE CENTRE

Yad Vashem: The World Holocaust Remembrance Center is the leading source for Holocaust education, commemoration, documentation, and research in the world. Yad Vashem safeguards and imparts the memory of the victims; pays tribute to the survivors; honours the Righteous Among the Nations; accurately documents one of the most cataclysmic chapters in the history of humanity; and contends with the challenge of keeping the Holocaust relevant today and for future generations.

 

INTEGRATED APPROACH

We will soon find ourselves in an era without survivors to share their stories. Yad Vashem works tirelessly to pass the torch of Holocaust remembrance to future generations who will not have the opportunity to hear a survivor’s first-hand account of the horrors, and to impart the significance of Jewish identity and continuity. Yad Vashem’s integrated approach incorporates meaningful educational initiatives, groundbreaking research, and inspirational exhibits.
