6th International March of Life Conference – Online

With
   • Boris Zabarko (Holocaust survivor, former member of the
   German-Soviet Joint Commission of Historians)
   • Thomas Feist (Commissioner for Jewish Life of Saxony)
   • Tomáš Kraus (Secretary of the Union of Jewish Communities in the Czech Republic)
   • Michel Gourary (European Director of March of the Living)
   • Jobst Bittner (Founder and President of March of Life)
How can we stand up for remembrance and reconciliation in a time of global polarization and the intensification of antisemitic and anti-Israel tendencies in the public arena? Why is it more important than ever to stand with Israel in the post-Trump era? What is the significance of the 80th anniversary of the German invasion of the Soviet Union on June 22, 1941 for the history of the Holocaust and for our personal working through the past today? How can even more people in churches and across denominations be sensitized and mobilized for the work of March for Life?
These questions, among others, will be the focus of the 6th March of Life Conference, the annual gathering of the international March of Life movement. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic this year’s conference will be held online. Before the conference, we will host a day for online training and encounters specifically for organizers and volunteers on Friday, Feb. 12, 2021.
