🎗️ Roma Holocaust Memorial Day – August 2nd
Today, we honor the memory of the victims of the Roma Holocaust — a tragic and often overlooked chapter of European history. On the night of August 2nd, 1944, nearly 3,000 Roma people, mostly women, children, and the elderly, were murdered in the so-called “Gypsy Family Camp” at Auschwitz-Birkenau. This day stands as a solemn reminder of the need to preserve historical memory and to fight against all forms of racism and discrimination.
📣 In this spirit, the European project RomDiem works to strengthen the participation of Roma communities in public life through digital empowerment and civic education. By providing inclusive learning tools and capacity-building actions, RomDiem contributes to combating stereotypes and building a more equitable society.
✊ Memory is not just about the past — it is our collective responsibility.
