The International School for Holocaust Studies at Yad Vashem and The Neri Bloomfield School of Design and Education have again collaborated on this special Holocaust-related educational initiative.
From late January 2013, advanced graphic design students have exhibited a series of postcards (12 x 18 cm) focusing on Holocaust remembrance. The postcards provide a basis for age-appropriate activities, developed by Yad Vashem staff, that can be implemented in both formal as well as informal educational settings. It is hoped that these graphic designs will trigger a dialogue about Holocaust awareness between young designers.
The Neri Bloomfield School of Design and Education from Haifa have participated in a full-day study seminar at Yad Vashem, and attended additional workshops carried out by Yad Vashem staff in their school.
Objectives:
- Create an educational process between students from Israel and abroad.
- Facilitate an international dialogue about Holocaust consciousness.
- Promote Holocaust remembrance and universal, human values.
