Featured in this edition of Centre News are the moving stories of Holocaust survivors and MHM museum guides Lusia Haberfeld and Joe
Scwarzberg. Jayne Josem reports on the journey to Poland she undertook with Szaja Chaskiel and a film crew to make a film that will help future visitors to the MHM to ‘walk’ with a survivor through his memories.

Dr Anna Hirsh mines the extensive MHM collection to bring you stories of Jewish people in Melbourne who selflessly helped refugees and Holocaust survivors to escape Europe and settle in Melbourne; English doctoral student Amy Williams writes about the Kindertransports; and US-based Australian academic Professor Paul Bartrop urges us to remember the Pontian genocide.
