This project will help prevent situations of violence and discrimination that may occur as part of the national reality of Mexico, strengthening through education the transmission of values and principles, as well as respect for others. These are essential pillars to build individuals who know, accept, and respect human rights and fundamental freedoms.

Distinguished senators, deputies, diplomats, professors, and teachers: Where did the Holocaust originate? In the mind of Hitler and his collaborators. It is in the mind where ideas emerge that produce great inventions and scientific and technological developments; but it is also there, in the human mind, where genocidal acts have originated, which can be avoided through an education centered on respect for human dignity, and constitutional values and principles.

We also believe that forgetting the Holocaust would be a crime, and not making it known to new generations would make us accomplices of those who deny it. For that reason, the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace also presented the government of Paraguay with a proposal to learn the lessons of this terrible chapter in history, which gave rise to the issuing of Resolution 684 by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the country on February 20, 2013, declaring the project Traces to Remember of educational interest.
