USC Shoah Foundation Institute at OktaTARS–International Fellowship Program in Holocaust Education
The Holocaust Memorial Center in Budapest organized a one-year long Fellowship Program in Holocaust Education for curriculum developers and teacher trainers. The program is supported by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum; the International Task Force on Holocaust Education, Remembrance, and Research; and the Hungarian Ministry of National Resources. The Fellowship—a unique initiative in Hungary—is a year-long program during which participants have to develop their own project in Holocaust Education. The major milestones of the year include a one-week intensive seminar, individual and group consultations, a four-day study tour to Holocaust-related sites, and a closing conference. The week-long seminar (November 2-7) included a presentation of the Institute’s educational work as well as training on the Visual History Archive.
