Holocaust Centre - History Speaks

	The History Speaks project was created when we were considering how the stories of Holocaust survivors should be documented for future generations.

	These were some of our questions, problems and assumptions:
	a) Survivors are getting older and will not be with us forever. b) Many recordings of survivor stories already exist, but they are stored in archives. c) Interviews conducted in the past were all by adults. d) The Holocaust Centre should reach more people. e) We can learn many lessons from the Holocaust and genocide. f) Young people should join in the creation of this project. g) What would work for young people?

	'It is amazing to be able to hear someone’s story and then immediately send them a question to gather further information and ensure understanding. History Speaks is the ultimate in interactive teaching and learning.’
