Wikipedia Day Is On 15th January Every Year Indeed, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to collect knowledge disseminated around the globe; to set forth its general system to the men with whom we live, and transmit it to those who will come after us, so that the work of preceding centuries will not become useless to the centuries to come; and so that our offspring, becoming better instructed, will at the same time become more virtuous and happy, and that we should not die without having rendered a service to the human race in the future years to come.

For Freidl Dicker-Brandeis: A True Teacher Friedl Dicker-Brandeis was an artist and teacher during the Holocaust. Born in 1898 in Vienna, Austria, she was instrumental in introducing innovative art techniques to children, emphasizing self-expression and emotional healing through creativity. She became a leading force in art education at the Theresienstadt (Terezin ghetto), where she taught hundreds of children not only to create art but also to find solace amidst suffering. According to the World Holocaust Center website, Dicker-Brandeis's intuitive creative philopsophy was to: “...unlock and preserve for all the creative spirit as a source of energy to stimulate fantasy and imagination and strengthen children’s ability to judge, appreciate, observe, endure by helping children choose and elaborate their own forms.”
