Centropa's Education Websites
Centropa offers teachers websites with specific themes, to make it easier to search for the resources you need. These websites collect the best of Centropa materials – interviews, photographs, exhibitions and films – and each highlights a particular historic event, such as Kristallnacht/the November pogrom, a geographical area where Centropa conducted interviews (Sephardic Jews in the Balkans), or a theme that teachers have told us is important in their teaching (what happens when someone turns against you). We hope you enjoy working with them.
When times are tough, we can learn from history. Hear about those who were forced to hide for years, and of neighbors and strangers who helped. These are stories to give hope and inspire during difficult times.
