ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Platform of European Memory and Conscience

The Platform of European Memory and Conscience is like a big group of people who want to remember and talk about things that happened in Europe a long time ago. They want everyone to learn from the past and make sure history doesn't repeat itself.

Imagine you're playing a really fun game with your friends, but then someone starts cheating and ruining the game. You would want to remember that person's actions so they don't cheat in the future and ruin other games. It's kind of like that, but with really important events that happened in Europe.

The people in the Platform work together to collect information, stories, and artifacts that can help us remember what happened in the past. They share this information with others through museums, books, movies, and other ways so everyone can learn from it.

By learning about the past, we can make better choices and create a better future for ourselves and others. That's why the Platform of European Memory and Conscience is so important.
