January 2024. Award ceremony of the international contest

On January 30, 2024, at 6.30 pm/CET, the award ceremony of the international contest “REMEMBR-HOUSE” will be held online on Zoom.

The contest was addressed to classes and groups of people (13 to 19-year-olds), residents in EU Member States. They had to present a project for a House of Memory referring to and further developing thinking and reflections on inalienable human rights and the key themes of the REMEMBR-HOUSE Project (the shared theme of house/home and what it means in people’s lives; thoughts and remarks about the denial of rights; active citizenship; the value & importance of personal choices and dialogue, discussion and the exchange of ideas and opinions).

The winning Memory Houses, from the first to the fifth, will be reproduced in a traveling exhibition and shown in various locations in Italy and abroad. The first classified group will also be invited to present the House of Memory at the Turin Book Fair (Salone del Libro di Torino) in May 2024.
