Vision and Mission

The Holocaust Centre’s vision is a world without genocide. It is a vast and ambitious vision, but we are working towards it through a multiplicity of smaller actions.

Our objectives are to:

  • Commemorate the victims of the Holocaust
  • Educate a generation of young people about the Holocaust and genocide
  • Raise awareness across the broader public
  • Stimulate more people to use their voice and challenge society’s values
  • Engage our professionals and parliamentarians
  • Influence governments to take action in a timely way so that in future lives may be saved.

And we aim to achieve this by:

  • Presenting the experience of victims in a meaningful way in our museum and gardens
  • Embedding the voice of survivors to ensure that their experiences are
    Documented and preserved
  • Using survivors’ experiences to educate the wider public about the
    consequences of antisemitism and ideologies based on race hatred
  • Translating the complex history of the Holocaust into educational material
    which will impact on young people’s lives and values
  • Creating high-quality, accessible resources
  • Joining with other professional organisations to spread awareness of the
    issues raised by the Holocaust and genocide
  • Providing timely information on current world crises so that people of all
    backgrounds can make their voices heard
  • Challenging Parliamentarians and engaging in debate in order to influence
    how policy is made

Of the Berlin street: “At this point, I felt things really clicked into place and the children began to understand day-to-day life for Jews.”  The carriage was engaging and poignant; children really got to see what happened in reality, but in a sensitive way.”  “The home was atmospheric and children got a real feel for life in Germany in the 1930s.”
