Barbara and Fred Kort Holocaust Geniza Project
The Barbara and Fred Kort Holocaust Geniza Project is a digital initiative of the Center for Holocaust Studies and Human Rights. Focused on safeguarding Holocaust-related documents, artifacts, and other materials, the project ensures these vital resources are available to students, researchers, and the general public. These assets will be integrated into the curriculum across courses of study, will support graduate-level research, provide critical resources for elementary and secondary level teacher professional development, and support a range of other Center educational initiatives.
