Last minute call! Study tour in Poland for Israeli guides/educators

Attention Israeli readers!

You still have a couple days to apply for participation in a Study Tour for Israeli Tour Guides and Educators — the focus is Jewish heritage and history in the Lublin region and neighboring areas of southeast Poland. The October 16-21 program is organized by the Rootka tour agency in Lublin. Caveat: This program takes place on Sukkoth…

The “Jewish Heritage in the Lublin Region” program is a seminar directed to Israeli guides of youth groups interested in expanding their knowledge in the field of Jewish heritage and the history of Polish Jews. The seminar will focus on Lublin and its region, presenting an opportunity to see Poland from a perspective of an area that is often neglected in official youth-tour programs. During this 5-day study tour, the participants of our program will explore the city and the region around it, visit important Polish-Jewish heritage sites and learn not only about their history and commemoration but also about the contemporary culture of the region and the connections to its past.
