Today, we are launching “The Last Swiss Holocaust Survivors” Exhibition in @VilleDeGeneve, by @Gamaraal4Life, together with our partners @swiss_un @EU_UNGeneva and @WorldJewishCong.
Right in front of @UNHumanRights building, which was home to the World Jewish Congress and other Jewish organizations, which helped evacuate Jews from all around Europe and tried to save them from the horrors of the Holocaust.

📣Anita Winter, @Gamaraal4Life - "Since 2017, we have interviewed dozens of the last witnesses living across Switzerland, to share once again their story.
For many, it was so difficult. But passing on their testimony, was equally important, so that we bear witness."

📣Anita Winter, @Gamaraal4Life - “As the last contemporary witnesses die on us, and when antisemitism is at an all-time high, it is more important than ever to strengthen the remembrance work." The October 7 attacks on Israel and the subsequent spike of anti-Semitism and denial around the world, have shaken every Jew across the world, reminding us of the darkest days of the history of our People.”

🇮🇱 @MeiravEShahar - “The portraits, stories and testimonies of those who survived tell the next generation not just how people died, but how they lived through adversity, and became the glimmers of light in the dark”.

🇮🇱 @MeiravEShahar - “As the Jewish People suffered its deadliest day on October 7 since the end of Holocaust, and an alarming rise in antisemitism across the world, the stories of those survivors must be ingrained in our minds, to prevent history from repeating itself.”
