The GEAP presented the Photographic Exhibition “Educating to Remember – The Holocaust, Paradigm of Genocide”, from February 28 to March 7, in celebration of the Jewish Week held in the “Antic Hospital de Sant Julia” Hall, located at the City Hall of Besalu in the province of Girona.
The Holocaust or Shoah was the systematic murder and bureaucratically organized genocide of more than 20 million people in Europe, committed by the Nazi regime and its collaborators.
In coordination with the directors of the institution, lectures and documentaries were provided about the history of the Holocaust. More than 300 parents had an opportunity to discuss and reflect on the factors that led to the Nazi barbarity during WWII; intolerance, lack of respect for life and human dignity, discrimination, and lack of sensitivity, among others.
