Paideia Alumni
From educators to artists, academicians to lay leaders, journalists, community professionals to social workers, Paideia Alumni have different professional, national and linguistic backgrounds, but are united in their motivation: their willingness to contribute to the renewal of Jewish culture in Europe.
Within the Paideia One-Year Program Paideia has so far graduated 192 fellows from 32 countries:
Argentina, Armenia, Belarus, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Georgia, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, the Netherlands, Norway, Paraguay, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the U.K., the Ukraine and the U.S.
With the help of the Paideia Project Incubator, the Alumni are also an active force of change, combining their commitment to the renewal of Jewish culture with curiosity and leadership skills to create educational and cultural programs.
Balkan Jewish Text Forum brought lectures on Jewish subjects and culture to Jewish Communities of Serbia.
