We are privileged to be co-hosting this important award with our project partners Terraforming NGO.

Thank you International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance - IHRA for highlighting it to delegates.

šŸ‡·šŸ‡øTerraforming ponosno objavljuje da je u junskom izdanju International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance - IHRA biltena istaknuto novo međunarodno priznanje ā€žHilda DajÄā€ za digitalnu memorijalizaciju Holokausta, koje sledeće godine dodeljujemo u partnerstvu sa Landecker Digital Memory Lab.

Međunarodno priznanje Hilda Dajč za digitalnu memorijalizaciju Holokausta služiće kao globalno čvoriÅ”te gde će profesionalci u oblasti kulture sećanja, tehnoloÅ”ki inovatori, preživeli, njihovi potomci i mladi ljudi predlagati nove standarde za izvrsnost u digitalnom sećanju na Holokaust.

Sećanjem na proÅ”lost prepoznajemo svoju dužnost da Å”titimo demokratiju i ljudsko dostojanstvo.

Priznanje nosi ime po Hildi Dajč, mladoj jevrejskoj studentkinji i medicinskoj sestri volonterki koja je ubijena 1942. godine u logoru Staro SajmiŔte.

šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§ Terraforming proudly announces that the June edition of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) bulletin features the new "Hilda Dajč" international award for the digital memorialisation of the Holocaust, which we will be presenting next year in partnership with the Landecker Digital Memory Lab.

Hilda Dajč International Award for Digital Holocaust Memorialisation will serve as a global hub where memory culture professionals, technological innovators, survivors, their descendants, and young people will propose new standards for excellence in digital Holocaust remembrance.

By remembering the past, we recognise our duty to protect democracy and human dignity.

The award is named after Hilda Dajč, a young Jewish student and volunteer nurse who was murdered in 1942 at the Staro SajmiŔte concentration camp.

Read more about the award in the Alliance's bulletin and on our website.

In case you missed it: our latest blog by Ariel Li explores what 127 organisations across 36 countries and regions told us about the current state of digital Holocaust memory practice.

From staffing shortages to AI policy gaps and online hostility, the findings point to the urgent need for more sustainable support across the sector.
