Holocaust Memorial Day 2022 Resources Launch
Event Information
About this event
You’re invited to the live launch of resources for Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) 2022.
Did you know that anyone can organise their own Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) activity? In fact, all kinds of groups across the country gather every year to mark HMD: in schools, universities, workplaces, churches, mosques, community groups, libraries, museums, prisons and more!
Join us online as we share exciting ways for individuals and organisations to get involved, with Olivia Marks-Woldman, Chief Executive of Holocaust Memorial Day Trust (HMDT), exploring the importance of marking the day. Local HMD activity organisers from all over the country will hear from Vera Schaufeld and Lord Dubs, who both came to the UK on the Kindertransport, who will discuss their experiences and the theme for HMD 2022, One Day.
The HMDT team will showcase brand new resources in an interactive way, demonstrating how groups of all kinds can mark HMD 2022, with a chance for you to ask questions. With the world still facing a global pandemic, joining together in person isn’t always possible, but our resources will give you ways to join together with others, to learn from genocide – for a better future.
Whether you are a teacher, local activity organiser or are just interested in learning more, please sign up here to attend this special event.

Holocaust Memorial Day Trust (HMDT) encourages remembrance in a world scarred by genocide. We promote and support Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) – the international day on 27 January to remember the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, alongside the millions of other people killed under Nazi Persecution and in subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. Together we bear witness for those who endured genocide, and honour the survivors and all those whose lives were changed beyond recognition.
