European Network Remembrance and Solidarity was created by the ministers of culture of Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. In 2014 Romania joined the Network. Its purpose is to document and promote the study of 20th-century history and how it is remembered. Our fields of interest centre on times of dictatorial regimes, wars, and resistance to oppression.

We support academic research, educational projects and promotional events through an international network of international scholars and ENRS partner institutions. The Network's activities contribute to building better relations between European societies through discussing our common past.
