Reckoning with the Past: The Arolsen Archives and Transitional Justice (Live Event Only)

Tuesday, March 3, 2026 - 12:00-1:00pm

The Arolsen Archives (formerly the International Tracing Service) was established in 1948 in order to document the crimes committed by the National Socialists and the fates of the victims. For decades, this organization has helped relatives of victims find answers about the fates of their loved ones, helped survivors establish their eligibility for compensation, and more. Today, the Arolsen Archives contain the largest global collection on victims and survivors of the Nazi persecution. This virtual event will feature two staff members from the Arolsen Archives who will discuss the history of the Archives, the work they do today, and the role that archives can play in transitional justice. Please note that there will not be a video recording of this event. Instead, an audio recording will be available by request after the event. This event is free and open to everyone – students, faculty, staff, community members, local educators, and more!
