The Dignity of Difference
The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2007 encourages us to look at what we learn from the Holocaust about the consequences of exclusion based on peoples difference from us. It highlights the experiences of a variety of groups under the Nazis. It also explores the opportunities this history gives us to consider how we can create a society based on respect for difference.
HMD08 Imagine...Remember, Reflect, React
The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2008 is 'Imagine...remember, reflect, react'. This challenges us all to imagine the unimaginable. It asks us to focus on the lives and experience of victims and survivors of the Holocaust; of Nazi persecution and of other genocides. It invites us to find new and creative ways to express this experience through art and media. It marvels at the resilience of enterprise, culture and of life itself in the face of destruction.
