Event organized under the aegis of the Foundation for the Memory of the Shoah, in partnership with Judaism on the Move (JEM), the association of Sons and Daughters of Jewish deportees from France (FFDJF) at the initiative of this ceremony, and the Consistory of Paris.
This commemoration was originally founded by Rabbi Daniel Farhi with The Sons and Daughters of the Jewish Deportees of France.
On the occasion of Yom HaShoah, the date chosen by the State of Israel for the commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust and the heroes of the Jewish Resistance during the Second World War, a 24-hour uninterrupted public reading takes place, day and night. This year are read the names of the Jews of France deported by convoys 6 to 37. The participants will read in turn, from the lists from the book Mémorial de la déportation by Serge Klarsfeld (Association des FFDJF), the names of "those whose only name remains" (Simone Veil)
