Hundreds of child survivors of the Holocaust gathered in Prague on Thursday to attend their 12th annual conference. Some 700 attendees were expected at the four days of sessions, some of which will be held at the site of the former Theresienstadt ghetto. While previous meetings were mostly held in the United States, the site chosen this year allows people from Eastern and Central Europe to attend.
