📚 TikTok launches new initiative for the 80th anniversary of Holocaust Remembrance Day. TikTok has partnered with World Jewish Congress and UNESCO to create a new in-app hub, featuring educational videos about the Holocaust.

The badge lasts for a six-month period, with the app reviewing the badge allocation regularly. New requirements include: creating consistent content, providing high quality contributions, and sharing insights on topics such as news, industry, or the local economy.
