The project brings together partners from various European countries with the aim of researching the history of war crimes, genocides, and human rights violations in the 20th century and their impact on contemporary society. The project&#8217;s goal is to enable young people, aged between 15 and 30, to critically reflect on the mechanisms of hatred, antisemitism, and discrimination, and to strengthen their commitment to European values and democracy.   <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"align-horizontal-wrap alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"459\" height=\"463\" src=\"https:\/\/mnom.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Posnetek-zaslona-2025-03-07-152827-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2912\" style=\"width:252px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>The National Liberation Museum Maribor<\/strong> is a proud partner in the <em>Against Forgetting<\/em> project.
