27 January 2025, from 9:30 AM
University of Milano-Bicocca
Auditorium G. Martinotti (U12)
Via Vizzola 5, Milan
On the occasion of Holocaust Remembrance Day, the University presents:
THE FORMS OF "MEMORY WORK"
Knowledge and testimonies as tools for civic engagement
The past, with its weight of dramatic events, calls for understanding, reprocessing, and repair. Awareness of what has occurred is a fundamental tool for comprehension and interpretation on both an individual and collective level. For this reason, various fields of knowledge have placed memory at the centre of their reflections.
Holocaust Remembrance Day and the associated discussions open up a plural dialogue, where scholars from diverse disciplines are invited to reflect on the forms of memory work from a civic engagement perspective.
