Holocaust Education in the Post Witness Era: Innovation, Responsibility and Memory Work
On March 25, 2026, educators, researchers, students and practitioners will gather in Vienna to discuss one of the key challenges facing contemporary memory work: how Holocaust education can remain meaningful and impactful in the post witness era, as the generation of survivors and contemporary witnesses is disappearing.
Across Europe and beyond, educators, memorial institutions and researchers are searching for new ways to engage younger generations with the history and legacy of the Shoah. This conference creates a space to exchange experiences from educational practice, research and memory work and to reflect together on the future of Holocaust education.
The conference focuses on how innovative educational tools, new pedagogical approaches and emerging theoretical perspectives can contribute to shaping the next phase of Holocaust education. It also aims to connect people working in different fields such as history education, memory studies, museum work, civic education and youth engagement.
Participants are not only invited to listen but also to actively contribute to the discussion. The panels are designed as open conversations that welcome perspectives from the audience and encourage participants to bring in their own experiences, questions and ideas.
