The national Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration takes place on the Sunday nearest to 27 January every year.
Mission Statement
The Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration is designed to cherish the memory of all of the victims of the Nazi Holocaust. A candle-lighting ceremony is an integral part of the commemoration at which six candles are always lit for the six million Jews who perished, as well as candles for all of the other victims. The commemoration serves as a constant reminder of the dangers of racism and provides lessons from the past that are relevant today.
The Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration demonstrates the Irish Government’s commitment to the Declaration of Stockholm, 2000, when the 44 signatory countries undertook to commemorate and teach about the Holocaust every year.
Holocaust Education Trust Ireland advises and assists Government with organising the annual Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration.
Venue: The Round Room, Mansion House, Dawson Street, Dublin 2
Time: 6 pm to 8 pm
To receive an invitation, please contact the HETI office giving the name and address of each person requiring an invitation, and also include telephone number and email if possible.
