Visiting, Discussing, Learning
The conference Jewish Heritage Tourism in the Digital Age, held in Venice, gathered some 90 participants from Europe, Israel, and the U.S. They ranged from academics and analysts, to tourism professionals, to museum personnel, Jewish community representatives, and other experts and stakeholders. We have a section on our web site devoted to the conference and will be posting videos of the presentations.
