Addressing antisemitism in education

Lecture and debate with Elke Rajal, Olaf Kistenmacher and Kai Schubert


When: December 21, 2020, 4 p.m.
Audio-documentation of the debate


Educational measures on the subject of antisemitism are often understood as "education critical of antisemitism". At our event, three short lectures will address the following questions: What self-image is expressed in "education critical of antisemitism", what are the specifics of this approach (Elke Rajal)? What does it actually mean to speak of "latent antisemitism" and what are the consequences for education (Olaf Kistenmacher)? How can educational measures be designed that address #Israel and the #Near East conflict (Kai Schubert)?

There will be the opportunity for questions and discussion.

The event is open for all.

The event will take place online via the "Zoom" video conference service. To participate, you need to register at anmeldung@mideastfreedomforum.org.
