I had not heard of this teacher training program. It is alarming but not surprising and we should become aware whether teachers at our children's schools are being used to inculcate the Zionist dogma.

Teacher training program The Yad Vashem Holocaust Studies Teacher Training Program for Australian Educators represents an external lobby group that influences educators and enables a foreign interest group to interfere in the public education system. It does this by:

  • Providing free travel junkets.
  • Politicising history by refocusing Holocaust studies on contemporary politics of the Middle East.

  • Providing professional learning, teaching materials, lesson sequences, and historical sources” which support a Zionist interpretation of History.

  • Influencing politically uninformed teachers who may not be aware of the Palestinian Nakba that occurred in 1948.
