Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) is the international day on 27 January to remember the 6 million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, alongside the millions of other people murdered under Nazi persecution of other groups and during more recent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. HMD is for everyone. Each year across the UK, thousands of people come together to take part. We learn about the Holocaust and genocides for a purpose: to challenge present-day discrimination and hostility.
