Safeguarding the record of the Holocaust and the genocide of the Roma.

Through this program the IHRA seeks to fund projects that contribute to safeguarding the record of the Holocaust and the genocide of the Roma in the following areas:

a) testimonies of survivors and witnesses which have not yet been recorded;

b) mapping and documentation of as yet unidentified and/or unmarked sites pertaining to the Holocaust and/or the genocide of the Roma;

c) archival material that is physically at risk or where there are problems of accessibility.

Countering distortion

The IHRA grants funds for projects that seek effective and meaningful ways to prevent and counteract distortion, which emphasize the sharing of good practices and strengthen international cooperation on this topic as well as increasing the capacity of governmental and non-governmental institutions to address these issues. Through this program the IHRA encourages projects that aim to prevent and counter distortion in the following areas:

a) public discourse, media and particularly social media;

b) education;

c) research;

d) memorialization
