About EHRI European Holocaust Research Infrastructure

EHRI’s mission is to overcome the geographical fragmentation of sources and expertise and to set standards for excellence in transnational Holocaust research, documentation, education and remembrance. As such, EHRI continually develops and maintains a distributed, digital and human infrastructure that provides access to archival resources and services to a diverse community. EHRI overcomes fragmentation by connecting sources, institutions and people. The EHRI Portal enables online access to information about Holocaust sources, no matter where they are located. The Conny Kristel Fellowship Programme gives researchers access to the resources of the world’s twenty leading Holocaust archives. EHRI’s extensive programme of networking and training brings people together. Last but not least, EHRI promotes innovative tools that advance the digital transformation of Holocaust research. Although EHRI’s primary impact is scientific, it also advances a wider social and political agenda. The recent rise of antisemitism, xenophobia and aggressive nationalisms demonstrate that Holocaust research is never a purely academic concern, but a prerequisite for open and non-discriminatory societies across Europe and beyond.
