The culture of remembrance surrounding the Holocaust has become a reference point in the work against racism, human rights violations and mass violence. With the war in Gaza, Holocaust remembrance has been seriously drawn into contemporary politics. We ask how this affects the credibility and broad support of the field.

Holocaust and Nakba are defining historical events for respectively Israeli and Palestinian societies. In this lecture, Nadim Khoury will explore how these traumas have shaped Israeli and Palestinian national narratives and how they have functioned as competing cultural traumas.

The speaker, Martin Auerbach, has not been able to travel to Norway due to the war situation in the Middle East and the closed airspace, and we have therefore decided to postpone the event on March 10th. We will make another attempt in the fall, and hope that the situation will then make it possible for him to travel

In the documentaryThe Path Forward, directors Julie Cohen and Mo Husseini present people and organizations in Israel and Gaza who have chosen cooperation, dialogue and peace work.
