For the second year now, Vinnytsia has become a meeting place for participants in educational projects of “Tkuma” Ukrainian Institute for Holocaust Studies. Last year, the Institute’s Summer Pedagogical Studies took place here, and in the fall – on November 11-12 – the All-Ukrainian Scientific and Practical Seminar for History Teachers and Methodologists. The event, which is the result of fruitful cooperation between the Tkuma Institute and the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, brought together 35 talented teachers and methodologists from all regions of Ukraine, as well as academic researchers of history, and specialists in the publishing sector.
The staff of the Vinnytsia Academy of Continuing Education, as well as local teachers, particularly Iryna Matkovska, a teacher of civic education at Vinnytsia Lyceum No. 18, provided great assistance in organizing the event in Vinnytsia.
