BUILD A BRIDGE…
…to create a safer, better future
Most of the time we all get along
…but sometimes difficulties arise
…and our differences become a challenge
Jan 27th – Holocaust Memorial Day
• Picture of candle
We learn lessons from our past
Yet hatred and persecution continues
Cambodia 1975-1979
Rwanda 1994
Bosnia 1995
Darfur 2005
A gradual process of disrespect
• People’s differences are not respected• Culture of ‘us ‘ and ‘them’• Stereotypes and specific ‘names’ are used• A deliberate plan to shame and discriminate• Lies are spread to dishonour a group and to
entice others to hate and discriminate• Hate turns to violence which the perpetrators
see as ‘justified’
What can we do?
RESPECT
Respect has to be worked at
Never Again
It’s up to us
