September 3-7, 2018
The Foundation for Jewish Heritage will hold a conference titled "Urban Jewish Heritage - Presence and Absence", between 3-7 September 2018 in Krakow. The event is organized in the light of the European Year of Cultural Heritage.
Over the centuries, cities across Europe and around the world have been impacted by their Jewish communities; as places of both presence and absence. Being held as part of the European Year of Cultural Heritage, this Conference is dedicated to addressing Urban Jewish Heritage and the multi-layered issues it faces. From tourism and sustainability to conservation and representation, the Conference will bring together academics, planners, policy makers and community leaders to examine the pasts, presents and futures for cities with Jewish Heritage, particularly in Europe.
