Remembering 80 Years - The End of World War II and Its Lessons for Today
Panel discussion with German Embassy in Ottawa: Remembering 80 Years - The End of World War II and Its Lessons for Today, at Kildare House, Ottawa, on May 7 2025
Join us for a panel discussion: Remembering 80 Years - The End of World War II and Its Lessons for Today
Marking 80 years since the capitulation of Nazi Germany in 1945 – a pivotal moment that brought an end to World War II in Europe.
As we remember the end of one of history’s darkest chapters, we are called to reflect not only on the millions of lives lost and the sacrifices made but also on how those hard-won lessons resonate today.
In a world still marred by war, displacement, and rising authoritarianism, the events of WWII remain more than history – they are a mirror and a warning.
This panel discussion will honour the past while engaging deeply with the present:
-What can we learn from the choices of a generation shaped by war?
-How do we uphold peace, justice, and democratic values in our time?
Let us come together in remembrance and dialogue – to honour history and shape a more peaceful future.
