The signatories of the agreement agreed to work together to raise funds to enable work to be carried out in the tangible (preservation, restoration, and renovation work) and intangible (research and education, cultural tourism and culture) areas. The agreement also involves joint applying for funding from Horizon Europe 2021-2027 and other available European and national support funds.<\/p>\n
The joint projects will include caring for the multicultural heritage of Wroc\u0142aw and restoring the Jewish community’s rightful place in it, restoring and recreating Wroc\u0142aw’s Jewish artefacts and commemorating them with dignity, public education and the dissemination of memorials, reflection, and management at the European level.<\/p>\n
The Bente Kahan Foundation was established on the initiative of Bente Kahan, a Norwegian artist of Jewish origin. The artist partnered with Maciej Sygit, a socially engaged local entrepreneur. The foundation began its activities with the renovation and revitalisation of Wroc\u0142aw’s White Stork Synagogue building.<\/p>\n
Committed to the tragic experiences of the Jews of Europe, the Bente Kahan Foundation works to promote the idea of mutual respect and respect for human rights. At the Centre for Jewish Culture and Education in the White Stork Synagogue, it organises exhibitions, film screenings, cooking workshops, lectures, meetings, concerts, and educational performances.<\/p>\n
