Case Studies in Action: Youth Empowerment for a Peaceful Caribbean Year of publication: 2024 Author: Gizem Kilinç Corporate author: UNESCO Kingston This compilation, titled “Case Studies in Action: Youth Empowerment for a Peaceful Caribbean” presents fourteen concise case studies highlighting (sub-)regional, national, and local initiatives that contribute to the operationalisation of the Youth, Peace, and Security (YPS) agenda. It features a combination of initiatives led by government, regional organisations, the United Nations, youth organisations, civil society, and multi-stakeholder groups across the Dutch and English-speaking Caribbean. The primary objective of this overview is to enrich the knowledge base on meaningful youth engagement in peace and security issues within the region, shedding light on successful approaches, obstacles encountered, and lessons learned. Organised into five sections aligned with the pillars of the YPS agenda—prevention, protection, disengagement and reintegration, partnership, and participation—the case studies are accompanied by an introduction and a summary of recommendations. 
An Unimagined Community? Examining Narratives of the Holocaust in Lithuanian Textbooks 2011 marked 20 years since the collapse of the Soviet Union. This represented a change not just in the content of education or ideologies, but in the relationships between individuals, institutions and systems. During this time, the post-Soviet Republic of Lithuania not only had to reimagine its national identity in a local context, but it also had to reimagine itself as a community within the political, economic, and historical imaginations of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the European Union (EU). Therefore, in Lithuania, as in many other post-Soviet countries, debates over which events should or should not be included as part of the national identity, and thus represented in the school curriculum, are more than just discussions about educational content; they are debates over the moral legitimacy of certain narratives and the ability of sovereign states to define them. (By the publisher) Textbooks and the Holocaust in Independent Ukraine: An Uneasy Past The article examines how Ukrainian history textbooks dealt with the Holocaust between independence and 2006. The analysis reveals two major, conflicting narratives about the Holocaust, though both externalize and relativize the Holocaust. As a template for understanding genocide, the Holocaust was applied to the Soviet-imposed 1932-33 famine in Ukraine, the Holodomor. The emphasis placed on the famine in both narratives partially obscures the Holocaust and in propagating the Judeo-Bolshevik myth, turns Jews into leading perpetrators of the Holodomor. In the Ukrainian case, the complex relationship among history, historical culture, and contemporary politics is compounded by the familiar tension between national history and the international reality of the Holocaust. The historical Sovietization of Holocaust victims was attacked by historians in the Ukrainian diaspora who resented the accusations that Ukrainians were collaborators and fascists. They sought to replace the Soviet historical narrative with one that made Ukrainians the central victims, not perpetrators. Ukraine's own nationalization of the Holocaust functioned in much the same way as the Sovietization of the Holocaust. Nationalization, obfuscation, and an implicit competition among victim narratives all contribute to the relatively complicated place of the Holocaust in Ukrainian historical narratives.
