Hi all
Below you can find a brief on the project that BJHC leads.
I intend to upload many hundreds of Iraqi Jews under the name on the topic.
Since this current project already exists I would like to change the name to the name on the topic, to add the logo of BJHC and add more profiles.
Please note that this current project holds only 150 profiles.
Please let me know if this ok.
The other option is that I will open a new project for BJHC and I will add a link to this project
"The Iraqi Jewish Families Project
Led by the Babylonian Jewry Heritage Center
The Babylonian Jewry Heritage Center was founded in 1973 as a non-profit institution. It was assigned in purpose of collecting, preserving and commemorating the heritage of Babylonian Jewry.
The BJHC perpetuates through research, Museum exhibitions, guidance, lectures and seminars, a library and digital repositories, and other variuse of collections, the magnificent heritage of this antique community, for over 2600 years until the mass immigration from Iraq and the integration into the State of Israel.
This project based on information database on immigrants who came to Israel from Iraq in different ways, as gathered in the BJHC.
The information gathered here is accessible and attached to it are family trees built by members of the community over the years.
We will be happy to add and upload additional trees - these trees will connect to the existing information and improve the picture of the family ties of the Iraqi community.
Thanks
Aviad
