Like Auschwitz in Poland, Babyn Yar in Ukraine has become a major symbol of the destruction of Europe\u2019s Jews during the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p>From September 23-29, 2016, the Ukrainian Jewish Encounter, a Canada-based non-governmental organization, working in cooperation with the World Jewish Congress, Ukraine\u2019s government, and other Ukrainian Jewish and diaspora organizations, sponsored a series of public events commemorating the atrocities that occurred at Babyn Yar. The events include a youth conference, a public symposium, a memorial space competition, and a commemorative concert.<\/p>\n<p><i>An important initiative of the Babyn Yar Commemoration was holding an international landscape design competition to present ideas that would transform Babyn Yar into a historic preservation site: a necropolis or sacred place of memory honoring those buried beneath its grounds.
