The March of the Living is an annual educational program that brings students from around the world to Poland to learn about the Holocaust. The program was founded in 1988 by Rabbi Abraham Cooper and has since grown to include over 250,000 participants. The March of the Living 2025 will take place from April 27th to May 4th, 2025.
The March of the Living is an important educational experience for students. It provides them with the opportunity to learn about the Holocaust in a way that is both personal and meaningful. Students march from Auschwitz to Birkenau, two of the most notorious Nazi concentration camps, and they hear from Holocaust survivors who share their stories. The March of the Living also teaches students about the importance of tolerance and understanding, and it helps them to develop a commitment to fighting against hatred and prejudice.
