In the first such event since October 7, the International March of the Living, a global Holocaust remembrance education organization, will hold two significant marches in May 2024 under the title “Together We Remember,” according to a Thursday press release.
The March of the Living is an educational program that brings students from different places to Poland to learn about and commemorate the Holocaust. The eponymous march takes place on Holocaust Memorial Day - in Hebrew, Yom HaShoah - where thousands of people march in silence from Auschwitz to the Birkenau Death Camp. Since it started in 1988, over 300,000 participants have participated in the march.
On May 6, 2024, for the 36th march, fifty-five Holocaust Survivors from different countries, including those who were also victims of Hamas’ October 7 attacks, will take part in the march.
A second march will take place in Budapest to commemorate eighty years since the destruction of Hungarian Jewry.
