Visitors to the Museum are invited to explore The World Remembers kiosk located in the Museum’s Military History Research Centre. The interactive, touchscreen kiosk allows visitors to read short First World War histories of each participating nation and to explore a gallery of more than 900 photos of soldiers, nurses, the wounded, refugees, war labourers, war mothers, and prisoners submitted by participating nations. Visitors can also search the names of almost 5 million people featured, with each name accompanied by details of the casualty’s life.
Created by Canadian actor R. H. Thomson, The World Remembers presents the names of individuals from Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United States, Türkiye, Belgium, Australia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Ukraine, Italy, New Zealand, Slovenia, India, Croatia, Austria, South Africa, Poland, Ireland, Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, Malta, Portugal, Japan, Montenegro, Bulgaria, Greece and Romania. Canadian names are displayed for 100 seconds, and international names for 23 seconds.
