"An object from the Holocaust is not only a physical entity; it carries within the suffering of those who owned it beyond the historical events of that period of time. The questions of how the object was used, under what circumstances it was damaged or where it was hidden are a very important part of the story it has to tell." Dr. Haim Gertner, Director of the Yad Vashem Archives, and member EHRI Executive Team
The international EHRI workshop "Heritage and Memory" was held at EHRI partner Yad Vashem last September.
