The world will stop and remember the victims of genocide on Holocaust Memorial Day.
Taking place on Friday, January 27, the day also marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz II-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.
You can join in remembering the six million Jews who were murdered in WWII - as well as other victims of persecution from throughout history and around the world - by lighting a candle in their honour at the Remembering the Six Million website.
