Simon Wiesenthal Center
From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center, established in 1977, is an international Jewish human rights organization dedicated to preserving the memory of the Holocaust. The Center confronts important contemporary issues including racism, anti-Semitism, terrorism, and genocide and is accredited as an non-governmental organization (NGO) both at the United Nations and UNESCO.
One of its projects is the original Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, California, with newer versions in New York and Jerusalem.
