#ProtectTheFacts

We protect historical facts through active remembrance of the Roma Victims

On August 2, we commemorate the International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Genocide of the Sinti and Roma when we remember the victims of persecution, terror, and genocide against the Roma people throughout Europe. Between 250,000 and 500,000 European Roma perished in the violence and mass murders during the Second World War. Join the campaign #ProtectTheFacts. This initiative against the distortion and abuse of the history of the Holocaust and the genocide of the Roma in the Second World War is supported by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), the European Commission, ODIHR, the United Nations, and UNESCO.

Remembering Hilda Dajč Award 2023

The Remembering Hilda Dajč Award 2023 was presented on May 7, 2023, at a ceremony in the University Library "Svetozar Marković" in Belgrade. Terraforming is one of the founders of this independent civil society initiative that was established to support youth activism and counter Holocaust distortion, manipulation, and abuse of history for a populist and nationalist political agenda, to promote a meaningful and courageous culture of remembrance and activism that strengthens democratic values, human and civil rights, pluralism and critical thinking.

Empowering new multipliers

In addition to teachers, Terraforming works on engaging new multipliers in Holocaust education, such as librarians, museum curators, and archivists, by developing and providing teaching materials and methodologies, facilitating training programs, and international exchange of experiences and best practices.

Accredited Courses and Trainings

Terraforming offers free accredited courses and training programs, among others, about IHRA’s recommendations on Teaching and Learning about the Holocaust, memory culture and media literacy, contemporary antisemitism, and Holocaust distortion and abuse of history.
