Abstract
Developing Holocaust education that helps the Swiss students critically engage these conflicting narratives and understand their coexistence is a complex task. At the university of Teacher Education in St. Gallen we have launched a research and public history project to address this challenge. A key goal is to develop educational materials that introduce students to conflicting narratives and encourage critical reflection.
