This five-year joint programme aims to promote education about the Holocaust and its relevance to other genocides worldwide. The Holocaust Education Focal Point supports Member States in the implementation of education on the Holocaust, developing projects in support of this purpose and fostering innovative approaches in the field. Canadian funding supports the first two years of the program. More specifically the program produces guidelines on how education about the Holocaust and other genocides globally, can be introduced and sustained in education systems. This project also builds the capacity of education stakeholders to develop country-specific initiatives and strategies that contribute to their local context and priorities through the International Conference on Education and the Holocaust (ICEH).
