To connect staff from memorial sites and places of remembrance and empower them to meet the challenges of digital transformation.
Digitalization is fundamentally changing how societies remember the Holocaust and the crimes of National Socialism. Memorial sites are developing new digital formats to engage their audiences. At the same time, they face Holocaust denial, antisemitism, and disinformation in digital spaces. These challenges are best addressed through collaboration. The Alfred Landecker Foundation is supporting rememBarcamp 2026, which will bring together around 50 professionals from memorial sites and documentation centres at the Neuengamme Concentration Camp Memorial on 2–3 July.
Now in its fifth edition, rememBarcamp is being hosted this year by the Foundation of Hamburg Memorials and Learning Centres. Following the open BarCamp format, participants will shape the agenda and content themselves, exchanging best practices, lessons learned, and current challenges in digital remembrance work on an equal footing.
