EMDS Project Presented to Experts in Novi Sad

Within the framework of the European Memory Data Space (EMDS) project, an event was held at the Hotel Sheraton in Novi Sad dedicated to the issue of creating a functional, connected, and sustainable digital ecosystem that will ensure the memory of the Holocaust remains alive and accessible in the decades to come.

Terraforming hosted the program held before an audience of over 30 prominent experts who traveled to Novi Sad from ten countries—from Finland to Greece.

Vision of a Sustainable Digital Future

The EMDS project, which Terraforming is realizing in close cooperation with the Jewish Heritage Network from Amsterdam and other partners, was presented by Pavel Kats and Miško Stanišić.

The event was an opportunity to more deeply explore the concept through which we work on creating a sustainable digital ecosystem and a new digital culture of exchanging experiences and materials, which encompasses archival material, testimonies, authentic locations and places of life and suffering, digital formats and tools for connecting material, pedagogical methodologies and experiences in practice, connecting them into a new digital culture of remembrance.

A New Philosophy in Digital Memorialization

During an inspired presentation, Pavel Kats presented the vision of EMDS as a space that offers a new philosophy of approach to the digital memorialization of the Holocaust and global cooperation in that field. It was emphasized that sustainability, foresight, and international cooperation are the three pillars on which the future of all digital projects about the Holocaust is based.

New Perspectives in Understanding History

Miško Stanišić spoke about EMDS from the perspective of educators and museum workers, and shared a vision of the future of Holocaust remembrance in which historical material, authentic sites of suffering, museums and memorial centers, testimonies, and educational methodologies and content will be available digitally, opening possibilities to create entirely new teaching materials and exhibitions in which all these elements will merge regardless of geographical distance, thereby opening new perspectives and entirely new fields for a deeper understanding of this history.

About the EMDS

The European Memory Data Space (EMDS) – Blueprint project aims to develop a Blueprint for a future Data Space dedicated to the Holocaust. This European Common Data Space will enable structured data-sharing approaches and advanced technologies to enhance Holocaust remembrance. The project takes inspiration from the Stolpersteine (stumbling stones) —the largest decentralized Holocaust memorial in Europe— by creating a new virtual layer that connects personal data, documents, and stories with the memorialized individuals​.
