European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative - ESJF
The ESJF project has begun the process of physically protecting Jewish burial sites in Europe, most particularly in places where Jewish communities were wiped out in the Holocaust. It involves a full mapping process with research, monitoring and individual proposals for protection. The ESJF has begun to survey 1,500 Jewish burial sites across five European countries, including Greece, Lithuania, Moldova, Slovakia, and Ukraine.
