Project Duration: 2013-2015

Evaluation of the impacts of Holocaust Memorial Day, an annual commemoration of genocide atrocities that have taken place across the world. The aim was to uncover impacts of activities on what people know, feel and do with regard to previous atrocities and their future behaviour in relation to discrimination. The project involved longitudinal organiser and participant surveys, in-depth interviews with participants and stakeholders, and focus groups with participants.

The project team also included Carmel O'Toole (Sheffield Hallam University).
