“At the end of March 2012, six of us from the CNA team had the opportunity to go for a study tour to Berlin and devote a whole week to monuments in Berlin, that is those relating to the culture of remembrance. We had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and once we got it, we put the last ounce of effort into it. We returned full of impressions which have still not settled in us, and I think that we are not yet fully aware of all the things we’ve learned. In this paper I will try to give a review of most of the places we visited, so that we don’t forget (if indeed we ever could), but also to help sort out the main impressions. (…) We also met with Dr. Christe-Zeyse, Dean of the police school in Oranienburg, and with the citizens association Berliner Geschichtswerkstatt which works on marking the specific sites at which something terrible was committed. Both of these meetings meant a lot to us, and we were impressed by the enthusiasm and the sense of justice of the people we met.”
