About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The Nazi Forced Labour Documentation Centre is located in Berlin on the grounds of an almost completely intact former forced labour camp. It focuses on a forgotten victim group: civilian forced labourers from all over Europe forced to work for the Nazi regime during the Second World War. At the core of the project is a photographic exploration of the past at the former camp and production sites in Berlin. You will get to know other than the usual tourist spots of Berlin.

💼 What the programme involves

In the first part, international participants are instructed in photography by a professional photographer. In the second part, the participants will research at various stations in Berlin what effects war and forced labor had on the place. The results of the search for clues will flow into an exhibition that will be shown in the Nazi Forced Labor Documentation Center and opened with a vernissage at the end of the project.
