In April 2024, we launched another project financed by the European Union (CERV program), this time with twelve partners from EU countries. Over the next two years, we will work together with them and local partners.
As part of ReActMem, we will continue working on difficult heritage, support educational activities, involve residents and organize more public events. We are working on new forms of commemoration, new ways of talking about the past, which is still little present or most often silenced at the social and scientific level.
Our project partners are: Urban Memory Foundation, FestivALT, Brama Cukermana, Grupa Badaczki na Granicy – PAN, JCC Warsaw, Fundacja Dokumentacji Cmentarzy Żydowskich, Żydowskie Stowarzyszenie Czulent, CEJI – A Jewish Contribution to an Inclusive Europe, LABA – A Laboratory of Jewish Culture, Marom Klub Egyesület, University of Würzburg and the Jewish Community of Estonia. The aim of the project is to inspire a collective effort to unite activists and institutions to explore and work with the past for the sake of a better future. Through a series of 65 events and initiatives, the consortium partners will explore the dynamics between activist movements and public memory narratives, both shaping and transforming the culture of memory in contemporary Europe.
The final result of the project, ensuring the transferability of experiences, ideas and solutions to other EU countries, will be the Rescue Memory Handbook for activists and public institutions, presenting the analysis, knowledge, best practices and practical tips on the subject collected by the project partners.
The Zapomniane Foundation will conduct 11 events as part of the ReActMem project.
