We are pleased to announce the first online professional development seminar of the Centropa Jewish Network, “Discovering the Sephardic Jewish World of the Balkans”, which will take place on March 14 & 21, 2021 at 9:00AM Pacific Time, 11:00AM Eastern Time, 17:00 Central European Time, 18:00 Israeli Time on Zoom. The duration of two meetings will be 2 hours.
All educators are welcome to participate at the first day of the seminar (March 14), however the second day (March 21) is designed for Jewish school educators only.
During the seminar educators from around the world will come together to gain new resources and tools, discuss common challenges and ideas about Jewish education, and form partnerships for the future. We welcome both our “veteran teachers”, and those who are new to our network.
Program highlights:
- Travel virtually to Belgrade, Sarajevo and Thessaloniki, and learn about the history and rich cultural heritage of the Sephardim of the Balkans;
- Dive into our resources of family stories, photographs, short films, and resource pack we have developed in cooperation with the National Library of Israel (NLI);
- Meet Jewish educators from around the world and develop lesson plans together;
- Become a member of a unique community of Jewish educators.
