Project:
The International Youth Meeting is a place for young people from all over the world to discuss issues concerning the past, the present and the future. Young people will look at the history of the concentration camp at Dachau, National Socialism and present forms of exclusion, racism and discrimination. The principles of exchanging ideas, experiencing different cultures, as well as Holocaust education are the core ideals of the International Youth Meeting. The International Youth Meeting is primarily organized by a team of volunteers. Many survivors of the National Socialist regime will talk about their personal experiences of persecution, whether in the concentration or labour camps or working in the resistance. Background: In March 1933 one of the first Nazi concentration camps was established in the town of Dachau, near Munich.
