GENOCIDE EDUCATION PROJECT
To equip secondary educators with high-quality instructional materials and professional development so they can effectively teach about human rights and the Armenian Genocide, and thereby contribute to genocide awareness and prevention.
About GENOCIDE EDUCATION PROJECT
The Genocide Education Project (GenEd) is a San Francisco–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 59-3791802) that produces classroom-ready curriculum, video resources, and professional development to help secondary teachers teach about the Armenian Genocide and related human-rights topics. GenEd focuses on practical classroom materials and teacher training so that accurate, contextualized genocide education reaches high school students across the United States. Founded in 2005, GenEd has developed an online resource library and a nationally recognized Teacher Fellowship Program (launched in 2022 in partnership with the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute) that combines an intensive immersion in Armenia with follow-on teacher-led workshops in participants’ home regions. In the last 2–3 years GenEd has run multi-state workshops, sustained its Teacher Fellowship cohorts (2023–2025), and continued to expand freely available curriculum and webinar offerings for educators.
