Did you know that the diary of a 13-year-old girl became one of the most widely read books in the world? Anne Frank lived in a time of war and fear, but found in writing a way to express her thoughts, dreams and hopes. Her story teaches us the importance of courage, resilience and the struggle for a more just world.
In this module, you will learn about Anne Frank’s life and her impact on history. You will learn about World War II and the Holocaust, understanding how conflict affects people and why it is so important to defend cultural and religious diversity.
