Sound in the Silence is an interdisciplinary remembrance project aimed at encouraging high school students from all over Europe to reflect actively on the complexities of the 20th century history with the use of artistic means.

The locations of this year’s edition of the programme are the House of the Wannsee Conference in Berlin, Germany, and Jasenovac Memorial Site, established near Jasenovac in Croatia.

For eight days, an international group of up to 28 students will work together with professional artists to create a performance based on their reflections and emotional responses to the programme, bringing together acting, dance, sound and creative writing.

While the programme participants learn about the site's past and work on the final performance, their teachers will take part in workshops on interdisciplinary ways of teaching history and exchange experiences with colleagues from other countries.
