Visual History Archive Webinar
In this webinar, the USC Shoah Foundation Center for Advanced Genocide Research team will provide a deep dive into the USC Shoah Foundation Visual History Archive, including its history; methodologies of testimony collection, preservation, and indexing; current state of the archive and its collections; and how to use its search engines and interface for research and teaching. The participants will learn how to unlock the research potential of the archive and be able to ask questions and get assistance with effectively searching the archive.
Dimensions in Testimony theater established at new Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum
The Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum this month became the second in the world to install a permanent theater to display Dimensions in Testimony – an interactive, holographic project developed by USC Shoah Foundation that will allow visitors to interact with a Holocaust survivor long after they are no longer with us.
The Center Research Fellowship enables the recipient to spend one semester in residence at the Center. It goes to an outstanding senior international scholar from any discipline who will advance genocide research through use of the Visual History Archive and other USC resources.
