2020de

2020de is a digital exhibition launched in 2020, coinciding with the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe. The project aims to document and present personal stories, memories, and historical artifacts related to this significant period. It utilizes a web-based platform to host a diverse collection of user-submitted content, including photographs, letters, diaries, and oral histories.

The initiative was conceived as a way to ensure that the experiences of individuals who lived through or were affected by the war are not forgotten. By creating an accessible online archive, 2020de seeks to foster a deeper understanding of the war's impact and its lasting legacy. The exhibition is a collaborative effort, inviting contributions from individuals and institutions across different countries.

Content on 2020de is organized thematically and chronologically, allowing visitors to explore various aspects of the war, such as daily life on the home front, military experiences, resistance movements, and the aftermath of the conflict. The platform emphasizes the human dimension of history, highlighting the resilience, suffering, and hope of those involved. It serves as a digital memorial and a resource for educational purposes, encouraging reflection and dialogue about peace and remembrance.
