PSV member Vamik Volkan, MD, DLFAPA, had the honor of giving the Holocaust Memorial Day (January 27) lecture (virtual) at the Freud Museum, London. Dr. Volkan is a Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry at the University of Virginia.
The Freud Museum was proud to welcome internationally renowned psychoanalyst and five-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee, Dr. Vamik D. Volkan, for this year's, 2020 Holocaust Memorial Day, which encourages remembrance in a world scarred by genocide.
Annually, it is honoured on 27 January which marks the anniversary of liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp. Sigmund Freud and his family were forced out of Austria as a result of this regime and lived the rest of their lives in exile in London, in the house now known as the Freud Museum.
Holocaust Memorial Day remembers not only those lost to World War II, but also subsequent genocides and those displaced as a result of war.
