European Days of Jewish Culture 2023 — Gear up with a selection of resources to help organisers and coordinators plan events

As each year, the European Days of Jewish Culture kicks off at the beginning of September — this year, September 3. The overarching theme this year for most participating countries is “Memory.”

The EDJC is coordinated by the AEPJ (European Association for the Preservation and Promotion of Jewish Culture and Heritage) — and it has just posted links to a variety of resources that will help organisers and coordinators plan events.

They also can serve as resources for interested people and participants who want to learn more about the EDJC, the theme of memory, and various resources and projects.
