International Student Workshop in Vilnius (April 2023) “Who Were the Victims of the National Socialists?”

As part of the project “Who Were the Victims of the National Socialists?”, EuroClio hosted an international workshop for students at our Annual Conference in Vilnius (20-22 April 2023) – the very first youth event to be held at a EuroClio Annual Conference. Over the course of two days, student representatives from our teams from Bosnia & Herzegovina, Denmark and Slovakia worked together with their peers from high schools in Vilnius to carry out a local history project. Under the guidance of Aaron Peterer, they explored monuments around the city and used a 360° camera to create a digital map of memorial sites. They then presented this to the general conference audience at the General Assembly. Parallel to this, the teachers from our teams from Bosnia & Herzegovina, Denmark, Slovakia and Spain held a workshop to present their experiences with the place-based learning methodology to other educators from across Europe and beyond.
