The March of the Living is an annual educational program that brings students from around the world to Poland, where they trace some remnant evidence of the Holocaust. On Holocaust Memorial Day (Yom HaShoah), thousands of participants march silently from Auschwitz to Birkenau, in the largest Nazi concentration camp complex built during World War II.
