Geared toward Ukrainian educators of students ages 14-18, Encountering Memory is a teacher's guide to accompany the film, Nazvy svoie im'ia (Spell Your Name), a documentary about the Holocaust in Ukraine, that incorporates testimony from the Institute's archive. Encountering Memory training is a national program aimed at preparing approximately 3,000 educators throughout Ukraine to use the multimedia kit in the classroom. By November 2008, the training team conducted more than 25 seminars with more than 700 educators who, in turn, have introduced the kit to over 10,000 students.
Below is a series of photos of instructors in training, and the use of Encountering Memory in the classroom.
