Youth HEAR

Youth HEAR is an organisation dedicated to mitigating hate in society by connecting young Australians with the memory of the Holocaust. We are committed to engaging Australian youth through education, commemoration and cross-community collaboration. In this way, we strive to learn the lessons of the past in the hope that we will truly be able to say never again. Fundamental to Youth HEAR’s approach is a dedication to maximising the engagement of youth, defined as 17-35 years of age. Mitigating hate in our society requires making every person aware of where hate leads if left unchecked. We won’t always have Holocaust survivors around to tell their stories and so it falls to our generation to create new and engaging ways for young people to learn about the Holocaust. We do this through education events, commemoration and cross-community collaboration.
