March of the Living
04 - 09 May 2024
About
Since 2018, we have established a programme in Belgium that gives young people from our communities who are not in Jewish schools, as well as young people who are at the start of their university studies, the opportunity to go to Poland on the March of the Living trip.
As in previous editions, we are organizing a trip exclusively to Poland, which will provide an insight into the various sites that marked deportation and extermination during the Shoah, as well as places of Jewish life and history.
The Jewish Youth of Belgium
"This trip was a unique experience. It was my duty as a Jew to come to the place where my great-grandfather and my great-grandmother's brothers and sisters went through hell. This trip brought me closer to my ancestors. The fact that I went with a group of young people was an added bonus. We were there for each other in difficult times, but also when we needed to take our minds off things."
~ Lea
"I am grateful that I had the opportunity to go to Poland to learn about the history of my people. It was a once in a life time trip and I am grateful that I was able to experience with my closest friends."
~ Joshua
"I had only learned about the Shoa from books and stories, but being at the place where it happened was such as moving experience. I think that every one should go there to understand what really happened. This trip was really impactful and it was even better to do it surrounded by my friends."
~ Lena
"As someone who never went to a Jewish school it was important for me to do this trip. It was really heavy emotionally but it's an experience that I will never forget. We had an amazing guide that made this trip accessible to all of us"
