The development of character strengths through education and language use at the Jewish Holocaust Centre

Project Details

The Centre for Wellbeing Science (CWS) partnered with the Jewish Holocaust Centre (JHC) to support their development of a learning framework that maps the lessons of the Holocaust to the development of character strengths. The JHC have already engaged in a significant body of work to articulate how this framework will address a core objective of ensuring that the work of the JHC remains relevant in the 21st century and beyond, without diluting the important lessons of the Holocaust. CWS assisted JHC with the development of character strengths through education and language use, to support the introduction of this framework to their organisation.
