Jewish museum brings culture and history directly in Brandenburg!

Brandenburg an der Havel, Deutschland - In a moving initiative, the Jüdische Museum Berlin its mobile exhibition and accompanying workshops to Brandenburg. From June 23 to 27, the tour bus will stop at schools in Brandenburg an der Havel, Fürstenwalde and Eichwalde. A team of three experienced intermediaries aims to sensitize students in grades 7 to 12 for the topics of Jewish culture and history.

The content of the mobile exhibition is complex: boxes full of exhibits, informative tablets, tablets and other supporting material are brought along. The museum director Hetty Berg emphasizes how important this project is given the increasing approval of anti -Semitic statements in Germany. The current conflicts in the Middle East also contribute to the relevance of the topic. "We want to open a different look at German history and Jewish culture," explains Berg.

insights into the Jewish culture

The Jewish Museum has been on the move since June 2007 and has now visited all 16 federal states several times. To date, the Mobile Museum has reached over 3,200 classes in secondary schools. An impressive number of 81,300 students has actively dealt with the diversity of Jewish culture, religion, history and present.

The workshop on the subject of anti -Semitism becomes particularly exciting. Here cinematic case studies are used that toast a lively discussion among the participants. You have the opportunity to position yourself for the examples and to incorporate your own experiences and ideas into the exchange. The goal is to achieve a change of perspective and to promote a deeper understanding of the different forms of representation of anti -Semitism. As The Jewish Museum Berlin emphasizes, the focus is on the formation of its own judgment among young people.

set a strong sign

The coming months could be an important turning point for the Jewish Museum and the participating schools. In view of the fact that the mobile exhibition tours far beyond the borders of Berlin, there is a great commitment to keep the topics related to Jewish life in Germany. It is today's young people who shape tomorrow's society; It is therefore of enormous importance that you actively deal with these sensitive topics.

The Tourbus of the Jewish Museum not only brings knowledge, but also a piece of history to places where there is often no lack. In times when discourse on anti -Semitism and cultural diversity becomes increasingly relevant, the exchange and understanding is all the more important. The project remains a bright spot for education and integration in Germany. A good knack for dialogue and education is the hope that awareness in society will change.
