Transmission and commitment: the new educational offer 2025-2026 of the Shoah Memorial

For the school year 2025-2026, the Shoah Memorial wishes to strengthen its commitment with students, teachers and all those who are committed to addressing the issues surrounding the transmission of the history of the Holocaust and the genocides of the 20th century.

In our educational activities, training and visits, we wanted to give all its importance to history, law, arts, philosophy, but also to the critical analysis of sources to better understand the past and shed light on the present. It is also about building bridges between young people and witnesses, students and mediators, teachers and trainers, guides and participants in study trips. To transmit by summoning History, the sensitive and the unprecedented.

Make our places spaces of knowledge and exchange for a greater understanding of the world around us. Our Institution opens the broadest perspectives, is part of rethought processes, attaches new audiences, while comforting the faithful in the need to return to see us to deepen or discover new horizons. Our revised educational brochure, both in its form and in its programmatic proposals, is an invitation to go beyond our comfort zones to reinvest time spent and question the current world.

Through the wealth of cultural events in Paris and Drancy, historical itineraries, our workshops, our exploratory visits, our temporary and traveling exhibitions, our training for teachers, our educational offer has been designed to allow everyone to find answers to major questions at the Shoah Memorial.

Each educational project is carefully studied by our teams in order to better support the educational community throughout France and respond with proposals tailored to specific needs and situations.

Our measures against anti-Semitism and all forms of racism in schools will be renewed and strengthened. The Shoah Memorial, beyond its daily missions, will continue its fight against hate speech. He will do it with strength and determination, by your side, in the names of the common values that drive us and at the service of the formation of the young generations.

Have a good back-to-school!

Jacques Fredj, director
