Kommittén for levande historia

The archive of the state expert commission includes documentation of the committee's work as well as the material collected and produced by the commission in 2001. It comprises 40 archive volumes, and includes 94 video and audio tapes of interviews conducted as part of the Committee's documentation project. One of the main principles that guided the collection was that it would have a Swedish perspective. Thus, interviews were not primarily made with Holocaust survivors, but with others, who in one way or another, came in to contact with the Holocaust, like medical staff, the drivers of the White Buses, and refugees who arrived in Sweden before and during the war. Nevertheless, nearly 100 interviews with Holocaust survivors were also made as a special project within the frames of the committee's work.
