Terezín Memorial Books
The aim of the edition of Terezín Memorial Books is to record names and fates of all Terezín prisoners and to keep the memory of meaninglessly wasted human lives. Publishing of the memorial books has become possible thanks the database where data for more than 150 thousand Terezín prisoners are being collected. Entries for tens of thousand deported Jews document the extent and perversity of the final solution of the Jewish question
and stand for a symbolical gravestone of people whose only guilt was their Jewish origin.

Our Volunteer Laurenz was in Austria last week to promote the GEDENKDIENST program at his former school, the HAK 1 in Salzburg. Speaking to about 60 people from the 4th grade he talked about his experiences and encouraged the students to also use the opportunity to do a Gap-Year with a positive impact. Besides the remembrance work and the work and history of our institute, Laurenz told the students about the challenges and the many wonderful things that come with moving abroad and starting a new job fresh out of school.
We want to thank the HAK 1 business school in Salzburg for giving Laurenz the opportunity to promote the program and the students for their keen interest.
