It is a memorial for gentiles who helped Jews during the Holocaust. There are various criteria for people to be declared Righteous among the nations, this does mean that not all of those who did help in some way are included; but it is a celebration of the greatest side of humanity.

In a specific sense, that phrase has been used to refer to non-Jews who saved Jews during the Holocaust. In a more general sense, it refers to non-Jews who are good people and who keep the Seven Noahide Laws.
