Abstract
In 2010, I travelled to Lithuania to undertake dissertation feasibility research on Lithuanian Holocaust education. During this time, I was granted permission to observe the teacher training programs of the International Commission for the Evaluation of the Nazi and Soviet Occupation regimes in Lithuania (herein the Commission). The Commission had emerged out of NATO and EU accession guidelines that required more comprehensive Holocaust education in Lithuania before they were able to join western organizations.
