Never Again is Now.

International Holocaust Remembrance Day | Monday, January 27, 2025

 

To honour the memory of the six million Jewish children, women, and men murdered by the Nazis, the United Nations designated January 27 International Holocaust Remembrance Day. As antisemitism continues to rise around the world at an alarming rate, it has never been more important, as a global Jewish community, to mark this important occasion. This year also marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp. Join millions around the world who are taking part in the World Jewish Congress We Remember campaign. Photograph yourself holding a sign that says #WeRemember and post it to social media. Many of these images will be projected onscreen at Auschwitz-Birkenau on January 27.
