Well, actually the CEO of Auschwitz Museum is our fellow Wikipedian, who
edit Wikipedia since 2004 and he suggested to organize something Wikipedia
related on numerous occasions. Museum has a very well equiped Education
Center:
with multiple activities devoted to specific groups of people - so I guess
arranging something Wikipedia specific - outside the official Wikimania
program - before or after Wikimania - could be quite possible - and I guess
there might be quite a number of people interested.

Hi Harry
I know the COT's are always looking at options and excursions around
Wikimania but this is one place where it would be better to make your
own arrangements as you said it has a terrible history. This is one
place that's best left to the individual, I'm not even sure I would
want to share experiencing that place with other people I dont know.
On a personal level. I'd hate to have to deal with a person who took
the tour not knowing the horrors of the place and having to address
that as a T&S person. As all these organised side events also need
critical numbers and some one two organisor best to focus on local
with minimal issues from attending

Hi all,
I'm sure the organisers have a lot on their plate right now so I don't
want to add any unnecessary pressure, I was just wondering if any thought
had been given to an organised excursion of Wikimedians to Auschwitz during
Wikimania as Krakow seems reasonably close?
I know this is a sensitive topic and likely to be deeply distressing but
I'm
sure many of us would find it worthwhile.
Best,
Harry
