Education is a key component of the Victims of Terrorism Memorial Centre. This is because young people represent the future, and so we must strive to ensure that terrorism finds no legitimacy among them and that they are familiar with the testimony of the victims.
The functions of the Victims of Terrorism Memorial Centre in the area of education include the following:
- Preparing teaching materials.
- Helping to provide teacher training.
- Promoting programmes to bring victims’ testimony into the classrooms (directly or virtually).
- Promoting school visits to the permanent exhibition of the Memorial Centre.
- Organising education-related conferences and seminars.
- Managing courses for university students.
