Encouraging Local Change
Its aim is to bring together local experts in the places of their activity. This year’s conference was held in Zduńska Wola, Warta, Chełmno, Szadek, Łask and Łódź – the central regions of Poland. Kamila Klauzińska and Tomasz Polkowski were the host Leaders of Dialogue for the event and presented their work for the Polish/Jewish dialogue and commemoration of Jewish history.
The intensive weekend gave participants an opportunity to experience the everyday work and challenges of the preservation of the Jewish heritage in the given local area. For Leaders of Dialogue this conference allowed them to learn from each other and share experiences, but also to strengthen bonds in a group supportive of each other.
In appreciation to the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany (Claims Conference) for supporting this educational program. Through recovering the assets of the victims of the Holocaust, the Claims Conference enables organizations around the world to provide education about the Shoah and to preserve the memory of those who perished.
