The research conducted within the Facts not Fiction project examines the impact of introducing the educational approaches of place-based learning and peer-based learning to Holocaust education, thereby aiming to tackle rising antisemitism across Europe. Given the novelty of these approaches, the research conducted during the project aims to bridge a gap between the bodies of literature on Holocaust education, place-based learning, and peer learning. In this review, we will establish the state of Holocaust education and place-based learning in Europe, before considering how the two can be combined in place-based Holocaust learning.
