Virtual Service Pop-Up: Every Name Counts Digital Memorial Project

Zooniverse is an online platform for people-powered research, allowing researchers with large amounts of data to analyze their data more easily through the help of volunteers. If you're a student who is interested in conducting research of your own in the future, or if you enjoy supporting research in areas you're interested in, this opportunity is perfect for you.

Participate in the #everynamecounts crowdsourcing project by helping transcribe information from historical documents, such as names and birth dates and contribute to the world's largest online archive (https://collections.arolsen-archives.org/en/search/) of documents on the victims and survivors of National Socialism. In 2020 the archive received the European Heritage Award / Europa Nostra Award 2020, Europe's highest honor in the field of preserving cultural heritage.
