Z projednávaného územního plánu Kroměříže plyne, že by židovský hřbitov měla nahradit nová cesta. Ta by zlepšila přístup k černé stavbě ženy starostova klienta. Město nyní slibuje, že hřbitov zůstane. Zároveň chce starostovým známým zařídit povolení.

As I now step back from many (but not all) tasks in EHRI, I wish the research infrastructure success and its users new discoveries. More than ever needed in this very difficult time!

I have been with EHRI from its start. From the preparatory meetings in 2009, the launch of the EHRI-1 project in 2010 and all other subsequent EHRI projects. I had the privilege to contribute to the building of the Czech national node of EHRI. In total more than fifteen years of work.

Today, at the POLIN Museum: Representatives of ten governments, including the Czech Republic, signed a statement creating the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure as an ERIC, a permanent organization supporting Holocaust research.

Today EHRI became the 30th EU-Recognised Research Consortium: A major milestone for EHRI and Holocaust studies. We are very proud to be an ERIC and thus secure the future of transnational Holocaust research. www.ehri-project.eu/ehri-becomes...

Many of us read and were influenced by Simon Wiesenthal's The Sunflower. A new @ehri-project.eu edition prepared by the Wiesenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies provides essential context to this key work. Highly recommended!

New PhD position at the GWZO Leipzig, in the project Screening National Socialism: Ideology and Everyday Life in German Cinema 1933–1945". Interested in film in occupied Poland and Protectorate Bohemia and Moravia, as a "seismograph of society and culture"?

As a memory, here is a photo from the exhibition about WWI refugees and your father's testimony (Orient in Bohemia. Jewish Museum Prague, 2014-15).

You are right, I completely forgot - thanks for reminding me. But I listened to your father's interview again, about a year ago, and discussed it in a lecture. Great to be in touch here!

This is the final conference of the Unlikely Refuge? project. Can we think about refugee protection in the plural? Does researching regions beyond the 'West' contribute to a discussion about alternative refugee regimes? Apply until the end of February!
