The mission of The Foundation for Genocide Education is to collaborate with governments and educational experts to ensure that the history of genocide and the steps leading to it are taught in high schools across Canada and the United States. We sit on a committee with the Quebec Education Ministry, which is developing a guide on teaching genocide to be used by educators in various disciplines. The government is funding this guide, along with professional workshops for teachers, and the Foundation is producing an animated video to promote the use of the guide. To offer further support to teachers, the FGE has formed a high school presentation program centred on genocide survivors’ testimonies.
