"Jewish Cultural Heritage" – Summary of Activities March 2020-February 2022
"Jewish Cultural Heritage" is one of the most important projects that POLIN Museum has been running together with Polish and Norwegian partners. The acronym JCH [ŻDK in Polish] indeed stands for almost the entire programme activity of our institution in the years 2020-2024.
The first activities carried out as part of the JCH project in March 2020 coincided with the onset of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Today, half-way through the project, we have already conducted circa 4,500 events for over 1.7 million participants.
We present you with an illustrated report summing up the past two years of our work within the framework of the JCH project. We are well aware that the activities we have carried out so far would not be possible without the support of all our partners who are engaged in the project, and without the financial support of our grant donors and the project supervisor—the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage.
Hope you enjoy the read!
"Jewish Cultural Heritage" – Summary of Activities March 2020-February 2022

The project aims to protect and popularise the heritage of Polish Jews through the implementation of educational and cultural programmes.
