Our eBooks - Testimonies of European family memory

Our association, Rencontre Réconciliation, focuses on the memory and legacy of the trauma left by the Second World War, with a particular emphasis on the diversity of experiences lived by Europeans. Recognizing that more than 80 years after the conflict, the scars of this war continue to weigh on families in multiple ways, our organization aims to create a space for sharing and mutual understanding beyond national borders.
