UNESCO study to examine treatment of Holocaust in global curricula

The 18-month long survey is the first of its kind to fully analyze and compare representations of the Holocaust in textbooks and national curricula.

“The results of this unprecedented global survey and the recommendations that emerge from it, will provide educational policy makers with a basis on which future decisions concerning curricula can be made,” UNESCO stated in a press release.

UNESCO is the only UN agency with the mandate to promote worldwide education on the Holocaust, and has been developing curricula to ensure that the Holocaust is never forgotten.
