Overview

As part of the Voices of Tolerance: Youth Forum on Belonging, an interview was conducted with an educator from the Ninth Fort Museum in Lithuania. In this conversation, he reflected on the deep pain caused by genocide and reminded us that the victims of the Holocaust are not numbers in statistics, but human beings with lives, stories, and dignity. His message underscored the urgent responsibility to ensure that such atrocities are never repeated in today’s world. By personalizing history and connecting it to present-day challenges, the interview encouraged young people to view remembrance not only as a duty to the past, but also as a call to protect human rights and foster tolerance in our shared future.
