Libraries play a key role in communities by providing a cultural hub for everyone to enjoy and a space to ask questions, learn and explore. This Get involved guide gives you examples and practical suggestions for what you can do in your library to mark Holocaust Memorial Day, and how you can learn from the past to shape a better today.
Our poster pack contains a set of six posters with information about the Holocaust and where persecution led in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. You can download a free set to display at your HMD activity.
The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) 2026, 'Bridging Generations', is a call-to-action. A reminder that the responsibility of remembrance doesn't end with the survivors - it lives on through their children, their grandchildren and through all of us. This theme encourages us all to engage actively with the past - to listen, to learn and to carry those lessons forward. By doing so, we build a bridge between memory and action, between history and hope for the future.
Thanks to our partnership with Ocean Outdoor, London’s Piccadilly Circus was transformed into a place of reflection and a focal point for the moment.
