NESHAMA, Network of European Youth for Holocaust Remembrance

mission, values and objectives

NESHAMA, Network of European Youth for Holocaust Remembrance, is an EU-funded project coordinated by the Shoah Memorial (Paris), bringing together students, educators and memorial institutions from five European countries. 

Rooted in the values of human dignity, tolerance and democratic responsibility, the project trains young Ambassadors of Remembrance to carry forward the memory of the Holocaust and Jewish life in Europe. 

Through a structured educational pathway combining local engagement with sites of remembrance and transnational exchanges, NESHAMA equips younger generations with the critical thinking tools needed to recognize and resist antisemitism, discrimination and all forms of intolerance. 

Both a living network and a long-term commitment, NESHAMA aims to reach all 27 EU Member States by 2030, building a shared European culture of remembrance and civic engagement.
