N2 - The fields of Holocaust Education and Holocaust Studies almost exclusively foreground the voices of professional academics. Practitioners are often the subjects of research, or the anticipated audience for it. The collection of papers gathered in this Special Edition aims to go some way to address this imbalance through foregrounding the voices of practitioner researchers (specifically teachers of students aged 11–18). The papers present good examples of practice, to offer an important contribution to the conversations that take place (or should take place) between the academy and practice, for their mutual benefit and the benefit of young learners.
