Fellowships 2012/2013 - At the Vienna Wiesenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies (VWI)
12/03/2012
The Vienna Wiesenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies (VWI) invites applications for its fellowships for the academic year 2012/2013, beginning October 1, 2012. The VWI is a partner of EHRI.
EHRI has a fellowship programme (read more about the programme >> ). Between 2010-2014, every year twelve researchers were invited to stay for a period of four weeks to two months at an EHRI partner institute. The call for applications for 2012 was issued in the summer of 2011 and circulated widely. Overall 75 applicants from 22 countries applied for an EHRI fellowship.
Last January over sixty people working for EHRI gathered in Israel for a series of meetings to discuss our initial results. EHRI partner Yad Vashem organized the event, and was host to the 19 partner organisations involved.
An International Workshop on Holocaust Testimonies of the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure (EHRI) at the Wiener Library for the Study of the Holocaust and Genocide
Monday 30th April - Wednesday 2nd May 2012
EHRI would like to invite you to an international workshop to be held at EHRI partner The Wiener Library on Holocaust Testimonies.
The EHRI project had only just started when I moved from Berlin to Munich, so the launch in Brussels was my first official trip after I began working at the Institute of Contemporary History (IfZ).
Gathering the Voices is a good example of the many projects, big and small, and in various countries, that still contribute to our knowledge of the Holocaust and its impact. In the end EHRI hopes to connect all this material and to create the best environment for Holocaust research.
