In order to mark the 80th anniversary of the World War II ending in Europe, we share our latest publication prepared for Polish and foreign teachers.

“Spaces of the Holocaust: Majdanek, Bełżec, Sobibór. Didactic materials for teachers” has been prepared in three language versions and is addressed to those that want to gain basic knowledge about the history of the eponymous camps in order to convey it to their students. It not only describes the chief didactic assumptions implanted in the State Museum at Majdanek and its branches, but also includes ready-to-use scenarios for workshops, that are adjusted to the students’ age and sensitivity. Additionally, historical outlines of Majdanek, Bełżec, and Sobibór with visual materials are included.

All teachers and schools representatives that are interested in receiving complimentary copies of these materials are invited to contact us at dzial.edu@majdanek.eu The number is limited, so the application order determines the reception.

The publication was released thanks to the funding of the EVZ Foundation and the German Federal Foreign Office as part of the YOUNG PEOPLE remember international programme and the “Spaces of the Holocaust: Majdanek, Bełżec, Sobibór” project.
