Today, in many regions of Ukraine, the only evidence of the Jewish presence are cemeteries. They are an important source for the study of local Jewish heritage for scholars in the first place. But they can become an object of study for young people. In order to raise public awareness of local Jewish heritage, the European Initiative for the Preservation of Jewish Cemeteries (ESJF) and Centropa announce the competition “Local Jewish Cemeteries as a Source for Studying Local History”.
