We are pleased to announce that the Warsaw Ghetto Museum and the British Imperial War Museums (IWM) are strengthening their cooperation to develop education, cultural dialogue and historical research.
Our institutions will jointly develop content for educational programs, exhibitions, and conduct research on the Holocaust and Jewish resistance, including research conducted as part of the FEnIKS 2021–2027 program. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to preserving memory and expanding access to reliable knowledge through educational, digital, and cultural projects.
Imperial War Museums, a global leader in shaping understanding of the causes, course, and consequences of war, operates five renowned museums across the UK. Drawing on moving personal stories and unique collections, IWM encourages audiences of all ages to explore the experience of war from diverse perspectives. Its expertise and international reach make IWM an invaluable partner in our mission of education, remembrance, and dialogue.
