‘Auschwitz has become a site of memory with a future, and it has thus become another tourist site with all the required amenities, a “must” on any itinerary.’ (Sicher, Breaking Crystal: 21)

International Workshop within the Framework of the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure (EHRI), supported by the European Commission.

Jewish Museum in Prague, October 21-23, 2014

EHRI would like to invite you to an international workshop on Early Attempts at the Historical Documentation of the Holocaust, to be held at the Jewish Museum in Prague, Czech Republic on October 21-23, 2014.

In November 2012, EHRI organised a first international workshop on early documentation of the Holocaust which was, to our knowledge, the first comparative research meeting on the topic. The fascinating workshop made it clear that more research and discussion is needed.

Workshop held at the Wiener Library for the Study of the Holocaust & Genocide, April 11th 2014.

In April, the Wiener Library for the Study of Holocaust and Genocide held a workshop which outlined the progress made in the EHRI project so far. The workshop was attended by a large number of students, academics and members of the public and successfully promoted the EHRI portal as a resource for Holocaust researchers and institutions.
