Letter of the Director of the Ukrainian Center for Jewish Education to EAJC President on the restructurization of the EAJC and EAJC financing.

The EAJC Program Commission was created according to the decision of the Extraordinary General Assembly of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, and over the second half of 2017, it has reviewed a number of projects submitted on behalf of EAJC member organizations. The Program Commission approved a number of projects to finance in 2018, and they were forwarded to the Directorate General in Israel in a timely manner. Unfortunately, none of the project applications have received an official answer, neither from the Directorate nor from the Congress President. Unofficially, Acting EAJC Director General Haim ben Yaakov has said that the Congress President has decided not to finance any of the projects. Thus, many projects that had been traditionally supported by the EAJC are now on the brink of dissolution.
