Holocaust education refers to the teaching and learning about the events of the Holocaust, during which six million Jews and millions of others were systematically murdered by the Nazi regime from 1941 to 1945. This education aims to provide historical context, promote understanding of the consequences of hatred and discrimination, and encourage critical thinking about human rights. Programs often include studying the lives of victims, such as Anne Frank, and examining the roles of bystanders and perpetrators. Holocaust education is essential for fostering tolerance, empathy, and a commitment to preventing future atrocities, ensuring that the lessons of history are not forgotten.
