Panel Discussion on Mnemonic Solidarity | 11th European Remembrance Symposium

The 11th European Remembrance Symposium and 6th Taking Stock of European Memory Policies dedicated to ‘Resistance and Solidarity’ took place on 9-11 May in Barcelona. The event was organized by the European Network Remembrance and Solidarity with the European Observatory on Memories EUROM as a local co-organizer. The symposium was an event for a broad audience, from prominent representatives of museums and memorial sites, employees of scientific and educational institutions to NGOs active in the field of 20th century history. The format of the event was focused on ideas and open dialogue with a focus on solidarity and resistance that occurred in the past century. Different forms of solidarity and resistance that live on in social memory or have been forgotten. What are the ethical implications of the practice of solidarity and resistance that emerged during the history of the 20th century?

‘Solidarity lies in the consciousness. Solidarity does not need any enemy’ – prof. Elżbieta Ciżewska-Martyńska. The panel sought to answer the question whether memory can be a form or vehicle of resistance and solidarity and how can we remember the acts of solidarity?
