project NEIGHBOURS WHO DISAPPEARED

We would like to introduce project of the Jewish Museum in Prague: The project Tribute to the Child Holocaust Victims follows in suit of the project Neighbours Who Disappeared. Similarly to the latter it addresses young people aged 12 – 18 and proposes that they work independently on the stories of people who lived with their neighbors in harmony until WW II. and who were then mostly marked, restricted, persecuted, and finally liquidated. This project’s topic, however, is in the first place the life of the WW II. students and children in the same schools children go to today, and what were the reasons for their sudden departure.
The exhibition is travelling now through Europe, Slovak Republic in Czech language, UK, Ireland in English, Germany in Germain and we are preparing a traveling through Romania and Italy.
The project is supported by The Forgotten Ones association.

In fact, this is a good starting point and many works that started with nothing turned out to be the best. * Copy all material in the highest quality possible. * Scan photographs in at least a 300dpi resolution. If you do not have a scanner, use a good digital camera. Copies from a photocopier have little use. * After obtaining a piece of information, always make a note of when and where you got it. Always cite sources in your work. * Photograph and comment on your progress. It will be interesting for those who read your work. * Do not be shy to record your own feelings. * Record even people's negative reactions. * If possible, use a digital video camera or audio recording device. Such material can be used for a film or a website. * Feel free to contact the project's coordinators and ask about anything, even technical matters.
