Teacher training seminar on "Teaching Jewish heritage in your class." 2020

Teacher training seminar on "Teaching Jewish heritage in your class." 2020

Centropa and ESJF (European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative) organized a joint two-day training seminar for 30 teachers from Croatia which took place from September 13-14, 2020 in Zagreb.


The training seminar allowed participants to learn about Jewish cultural heritage in Croatia from renowned experts. Furthermore,  the participants were introduced to Centropa‘s educational tools, examined Croatian-Jewish history in Zagreb, took a closer look at the local Jewish cemetery and synagogue, and carried out small-group work sessions on how to develop lesson plans and projects for both classroom and extracurricular use.


We want to thank our supporters at the European Commission and the Claims Conference for making this seminar possible.
