The goal of the scientific meetings Each Year One Name is to publicly present the recent research findings from the field of the history of the Holocaust, anti-Semitism, and at the same time, life stories of the so-called Righteous Among the Nations and individuals who were victims of the Nazi destruction machine during the Second World War.
This year, the international scientific meeting, which is traditionally organized on the occasion of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, is devoted to the Slovenian Righteous Ivan and Ljubica Župančič, who saved a 9 years old Jewish boy Dan Stockhamer during World War II.
The organiser of the international symposium is the Center of Jewish Cultural Heritage Synagogue Maribor.
The symposium is organised in cooperation with the Maribor University Library and the First Gymnasium Maribor as part of the project “Shoah – Let Us Remember, 2019”.
The organisation of the symposium was supported by the Minister of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia, Mr Dejan Prešiček, the Municipality of Maribor and the Embassy of the State of Israel.
The honorary patron of the project “Shoah – Let Us Remember, 2019”, is the Minister of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia, Mr Dejan Prešiček.
