International March of the Living will hold a Virtual March on Holocaust Remembrance Day led by Israel’s President Reuven Rivlin and Holocaust survivors.
Among the Holocaust survivors participating are those who survived due to the selfless acts of medical professionals. Participants in the Virtual March from across the globe were filmed using innovative 3D technology so they appear to be marching along the traditional March of the Living route at Auschwitz – Birkenau.
As a tribute to the medical professionals who risked their lives during the Holocaust, numerous medical associations around the globe, including the World Medical Association, as well as those on the forefront of the fight against COVID-19 will participate in this virtual program. Among those marching will be doctors, nurses and paramedics.
The Virtual March will premiere Thursday April 8th on Israel media at 3:00PM IRL, followed by the global broadcast at 10:00 AM ET / 4:00 PM CET / 5:00pm IRL and will be followed immediately by an online memorial ceremony with the first torch of remembrance lit by President Rivlin.
