Educators' Study Tours
This HHREC educational mission offers teachers a unique opportunity to visit the sites of the Holocaust in Germany and Poland and speak with experts in the field. The program is designed to offer insight into the history of the Jews in these countries, trace the origin and progression of the Holocaust, and visit memorial sites through a series of interactive workshops and guided tours with experts in the field.
This guided trip was created to expand teacher comprehension of this monumental event in human history, and it has served to inspire and motivate them as they prepare to teach the lessons of the Holocaust and promote protection of Human Rights to their students.
Participants gain first-hand knowledge of how a re-unified Germany approaches the increased diversification of its population today, and prepare the next generation of students to understand the meaning of the Holocaust and pass on the lessons we have learned for the future.
