The training on Roma Holocaust Remembrance and Education was organised by the European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture (ERIAC) in the framework of the EU-CoE Joint Programme of the European Commission and the Council of Europe “RomaMemory”.
The training and commemoration programme in Kraków and Auschwitz-Birkenau brought together educators, researchers, Roma activists, public officials and policymakers from 12 EU Member States. Marking the 10th anniversary of the EU’s recognition of 2 August as European Roma Holocaust Memorial Day—which honours the thousands of Roma and Sinti murdered during the liquidation of the ‘Gypsy Family Camp’ at Auschwitz-Birkenau on the night of 2–3 August 1944 and all Roma victims of Nazi persecution—the event aimed to embed this history as an integral part of Europe’s memory and education.
