Advancing Knowledge and Understanding - United States Holocaust Memorial Museum

Holocaust awareness and education depend on scholarly research and inquiry. The Mandel Center is the leading generator of new knowledge and understanding about the Holocaust. It supports scholarship and publications, assists researchers and faculty worldwide, and promotes the study of the Holocaust at North American universities.

The Advancing Knowledge and Understanding Impact Fund provides critical resources to the Mandel Center to ensure the continued growth and vitality of Holocaust studies.

“Our foundation is delighted to have been an ardent supporter of the Museum since its inception. We are pleased to place the Mandel name on the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, the world’s principal venue for Holocaust scholarship.”
