Between 12-14 February, Centropa organized the fifth CJN winter seminar for teachers and educators of European and Israeli Jewish schools. 28 participants came together from 16 countries to learn about Centropa materials and the various ways they can be used in the classroom. Teachers had the opportunity to work together in smaller groups, think about cross-border project ideas together, and share lesson plans with each other.
Centropa organizes a one-day seminar for teachers and educators in Israel. During the seminar, participants get to know our unique database of Jewish stories, photos and films, and work with each other to create lesson plans and innovative projects for their students.
