It has been almost 80 years since the Netherlands was liberated following 5 years of
German occupation. During this time, the population was brutally suppressed, jews
and other groups were deported and murdered as war raged across Europe. Camp
Westerbork was used as a deportation camp by Nazi Germany during this time.

In this episode of Remembering Together, British Deputy Ambassador to the
Netherlands, Keith Allan, visited camp Westerbork. He was joined by Bertien Minco,
the Director of Camp Westerbork Memorial Centre, who shared impactful and
harrowing stories of people and families who were placed in camp Westerbork.
