The annual March of the Living program brings thousands of young people from around the world each year on Holocaust Remembrance Day to Auschwitz-Birkenau to honour the memory of the victims of the Holocaust and to pledge to build a better world for all humanity.
After visiting other places of Nazi German persecution as well as once thriving sites of Jewish life and culture, participants travel to Israel, the birthplace and homeland of the Jewish People.
In Israel, they tour the length and breadth of the land, visiting its ancient and modern sites, as well as commemorating Israel's fallen soldiers on Yom Hazikaron and celebrating Israel's independence on Yom Ha'atsmaut.
