The project aims to inform participants on how to draw parallels between anti-Semitism and discrimination leading up and during World War 2 and sectarianism and racism.

Participants will be introduced to the history of the Holocaust with particular emphasis on the different groups of people whose lives changed beyond recognition at the Nazi camps in Auschwitz, Poland
