On 11-15 July 2016 a delegation of the World Organization of Bukovina Jews traveled to North Bukovina for a pilot project to survey Jewish Heritage Sites in the area around Storozhynetz. The team members were Sara Sweiry, Nathan Kinsbrunner and Baruch Eylon.
During this trip the team surveyed 12 heritage sites, met with local officials, filled the questionnaire (using a mobile application that allows capturing text and pictures, including GPS coordinates) and posted the information on the web, to make it available to all interested people around the world.
The team also prepared recommendations what to do in each site.
The filled survey about this site can be seen at

This post provides pictures taken by the team in Dawideny. Our information was that there is no cemetery in this village and we were able to confirm it. The Jews were buried in Banila. The information was provided by the head of the village and an old woman we met.
The family of Sara Sweiry, a team member of our delegation, comes from this village. It was very exciting for Sara to speak with the old lady, that remembered her family and the Jews that lived in the village until WWII.
The pictures of the village, municipality and head of village are shown below.
