The EHRI project brings together an international consortium of archives, libraries, museums, memory and research institutions.
The overarching goal of the EHRI project is to support Holocaust research communities by opening an online portal that provides access to information on Holocaust archives and collections in Europe and beyond.
The scholarships – offered on a call for applications that will be launched every nine months – are open to researchers of all nationalities (doctoral and post-doctoral students, archivists, librarians and documentalists), with the aim of supporting projects opening new fields of knowledge on the Shoah and allowing a comparative and transnational approach.
Particular emphasis is placed on projects originating from researchers in the countries of Eastern Europe.
Deadline for submission of files (to be drafted only in English) for the first session: 30 September 2015

The European Infrastructure for Holocaust Research (EHRI), whose main objective is to support and revive research on the persecution and genocide of Jews, offers numerous grants to researchers who wish to access archives and collections of the highest importance on this subject.
The Shoah Memorial is one of 15 partner institutions in the EHRI network that will provide 418 weeks of research stay during the period 2016-2018.

Twenty institutions from thirteen countries associated to develop a European project which aims at relaunching studies on the Shoah by creating a virtual research infrastructure.
On 26 March 2015, at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences, the European project EHRI Europen Holocaust Infrastructure – which began in 2010 and whose partner is the Shoah Memorial – will enter its final stretch.
A closing symposium, organized in the presence of the Ministers of Education of Germany, Poland and the Netherlands, representatives of the European Commission and the academic world, will be an opportunity to present to the research community and also to the general public the results acquired by the quadrennial work of the 20 partner institutions of the EHRI consortium in the different fields of action. This large-scale event will be particularly marked by the launch of a digital research portal that will provide online access to scattered documents dealing with the persecution of Jews. Through the creation of this digital infrastructure, which has seen the active involvement of the Shoah Memorial, descriptions of the archival collections belonging to more than 1,800 institutions around the world will be made available, in the hope of helping to stimulate and support research on the Holocaust.
The ambition is enormous: to revive research by stimulating new studies on unknown aspects of the genocide of the Jews and to develop a transnational history of the Shoah that still partly remains to be written.

This workshop is part of a larger project called EHRI European Holocaust Research Infrastructure which was launched in November 2010 in Brussels thanks to the financial contribution of the European Union. EHRI’s main objective is to support the Holocaust research community. Involved on several levels, the Shoah Memorial is organizing this workshop on June 2, 2014, to present the project and the possibilities it offers to researchers. The Shoah Memorial organized as part of this program, Monday 2 June 2014, a day of presentation and dissemination of the results to the French scientific community.
Led by those responsible for the main activities of the project, this day was an opportunity to share the initiatives of the EHRI team with specialists on the subject (researchers, university professors, archivists, doctoral students) and to discover all the opportunities that EHRI represents in terms of research support.
