Guidelines for Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights Violation EducationPaidProfessional Development

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

This Learning Path was created in response to Act 70 of 2014 Guidelines for Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights Violations Education. Act 70 was passed to encourage schools to include Holocaust, genocide, and human-rights violation education within their adopted curriculum. The purpose of this course, coming directly from Act 70, is "to provide children with an understanding of the importance of the protection of human rights and the potential consequences of unchecked ignorance, discrimination, and persecution. It is a matter of high priority that children in this Commonwealth be educated concerning the Holocaust, genocide and other human rights violations.”
