\"genoa\"<\/a>By Pagine Ebraiche staff*<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Jewish community of Genoa, in collaboration with the Union of the Italian Jewish Communities (UCEI), has organized a training course for teachers, which is taking place between October 3 and December 10.<\/p>\n

The course is aimed at providing teachers with both basic and in-depth knowledge of Jewish history and Judaism\u2019s complex structure. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis initiative started off with some Genoese teachers who showed interest in gaining further knowledge on Jewish history and traditions, which they could then make use of when dealing with the Remembrance of the Holocaust with their students. It is quite significant that the teachers themselves asked for such a training course,\u201d highlighted Saul Meghnagi, project coordinator for UCEI, pedagogist, and former President of Istituto superiore per la Formazione of Rome. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis training course represents an opportunity to start focusing more on Judaism rather than on the Holocaust, which is only a small part of our millenary history\u201d, Meghnagi explained. <\/p>\n

The course\u2019s main target is to provide teachers with the right tools to illustrate to their students Jewish identity and tradition in all their aspects, from both a religious and a laical perspective. <\/p>\n

\u201cToo often, many young people use the word \u2018Jew\u2019 as an insult, without even knowing what it actually means\u201d, said Daniel\u00e8 Sulewic, project coordinator for the Jewish community of Genoa. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis course could represent an opportunity to clarify some concepts and to raise awareness going above and beyond the Holocaust Memorial Day, which is still a meaningful date, but has now become almost obsolete,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The teachers will follow a two-year-program, 6 sessions of which are taking place in 2019, each with a different lecturer. <\/p>\n

\u201cJews: Nation, People, Religion\u201d was opened by a session delivered by Meghnagi (October 3); Rabbi Roberto Della Rocca, the director of UCEI\u2019s Culture and Education Area will deal with written and oral Torah (October 30); CDEC director Gadi Luzzato Voghera will analyze the topic \u201cAnti-Judaism and anti-Semitism\u201d (November 27); the closing event for 2019 will be held by Ariel Dello Strologo, President of the Jewish community of Genoa, who will be dealing with \u201cJewish culture: the Book\u201d (December 10). It will also be possible to take part to individual events, without following the whole training course. \u201cI do not believe in the power of coercion. I\u2019d rather try and arouse interest\u201d, Meghnagi explained.<\/p>\n

The course will also include innovative ways to introduce participants to Judaism, e.g. encouraging their artistic sensibility. Teachers will have the chance to attend the exhibition \u201cTravel in the Jewish world with Emanuele Luzzati,\u201d organised by Daniel\u00e8 Sulewic (November 6).<\/p>\n

\u201cLuzzati\u2019s drawings provide visitors with an innovative and visual representation of Jewish life, portraying the various traditional celebrations or the roles of some Torah characters, for instance\u201d, Sulewitch said. <\/p>\n

He also stressed the fact that organising and holding the training course in Genoa has been \u201cvery challenging for such a small community, but the project was supported by the whole city council and implemented with the valuable contribution of many voluntary workers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that our project could become a model to be adopted by other Italian cities, since it can definitely bring a positive contribution throughout Italy\u201d, Saul Meghnagi added. \u201cMany people want to open up the debate concerning Judaism on something more than the Remembrance of the Holocaust, which is still a fundamental element but must be joined by other aspects.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that both teachers and students will be enriched by this learning path,\u201dPresident Ariel Dello Strologo said when presenting the initiative, \u201cand further realize that Jewish culture has always been at the root of European culture as well as a source of stimuli for both the European and many other cultures. Therefore, it is no coincidence that careful observation can reveal connections and recurring elements between them.\u201d
