RESIST 1933–1945. For human rights in Europe

Educational materials on resistance against National Socialism in Europe using the example of France and Germany 1933–1945

National Socialist Germany committed the most serious human rights violations in Europe during its dictatorship and World War II. Numerous countries were occupied by the National, others cooperated with the German Reich. But everywhere in Europe between 1933 and 1945, there were people who opposed the National Socialist crimes and offered resistance. Their actions were guided by a focus on human rights, the restoration of the rule of law and the liberation of their countries from National Socialism.

Today, resistance against National Socialism is increasingly viewed from a transnational perspective. The project "RESIST 1933–1945. For Human Rights in Europe" provides educational materials on this topic.

The materials are available in simple German and French language.
