Call for Applications - short info in English

The Maximilian-Kolbe-Werk is inviting applications for participation in an international project to be carried out in early 2011. The project bearing the title "Remembering and Commemorating in the Age of Web 2.0" aims to bring together young people from Central and Eastern Europe with survivors of Nazi concentration camps and ghettos. They will closely get to know each other and reflect together about possible ways of preserving the memory of Nazi terror. This issue is becoming more and more virulent, as the number of eye witnesses who are able to tell their stories is rapidly decreasing. Different media techniques (video, audio, photo etc.) will be applied by the participants in order to record and document the accounts of the former camp inmates, and to make them publicly available via the internet afterwards.
