Additionally, participants gain access to webinars exploring topics like: Occupation, Violence during the Holocaust, Denial, Testimonies and many more.

The PATH project emphasizes the importance of survivor testimonies in Holocaust education. By facilitating intimate meetings with survivors, the program ensures that the memories and lessons of the Holocaust are preserved and passed on. Participants are trained to become ambassadors of remembrance, equipped to share these powerful stories through social media and other platforms.

The program is a cooperation with the Austrian Service Abroad, B’nei Akiva Germany and B’nai B’rith Europe.
