To highlight the plight of refugees across the globe, the charity Good Chance, along with the world-famous creators of War Horse Handspring Puppet Company, created The Walk - a travelling real-world festival of art and hope. The Walk features Little Amal, a 3.5meter tall puppet of a child refugee, who walks 8000km across Europe searching for her mother and the chance to start a new life. Now, with the help of award-winning storytellers Alchemy Immersive, The Walk has been brought to life in a new and engaging digital experience. Introducing Little Amal – The Interactive Journey. This interactive storybook enables you to experience the drama and danger Little Amal faces when fleeing her war-torn home in Syria. Her epic walk will take her across 7 countries, through treacherous seas, high mountain passes, dense forests and hostile cities. Living alone in the forest, battling hunger and being stalked by wild animals are just a few of the challenges she faces as she goes. Along the way Little Amal will need your help to overcome these obstacles and succeed on her desperate journey to freedom.

Uncover previously invisible sites of Jewish life in Germany, Poland and Serbia. Teenagers from across Europe investigated the Centropa archive, as well as other historical sources, to research Jewish biographies from their towns and cities. With the guidance of local artists, they created graphic novels, interviews, audio recordings, animations, films and many other projects to retell the stories of those who might once have been their neighbors. Together we aim to anchor formerly invisible places of Jewish life as new places of remembrance.  The project was developed by Centropa – Zentrum für jüdische Geschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts e.V, Galicia Jewish Museum in Krakow, berlinHistory App, an open digital platform for history and CEP (Centre for Education Policy), an independent multidisciplinary research center. MemoryLanes is a project by the Education Agenda NS-Injustice funded by EVZ Foundation and the Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF) based on a decision by the Bundestag.
