Scholars United: Strategies and Actions to Combat Antisemitism in Schools

The 2025 11th Annual ISGAP-Oxford Summer Institute for Curriculum Development in Critical Contemporary Antisemitism Studies brought 100+ scholars together from a range of academic fields to study antisemitism and develop this topic as a new discipline in Higher Education. Traveling from many countries worldwide, participants attended numerous discussion-oriented lectures and then presented their newly designed syllabi and projects about combating antisemitism, a form of hate that begins with Jewish people, but knows no boundaries and never ends with Jewish people. The intensive 12 days at St. Catherine’s College, Oxford, were productive on every level:  intellectually riveting scholarship, impassioned discussions, and new and deepened friendships in the growing network. This lecture features highlights from the ISGAP-Oxford Summer Institute, an annual program through the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy.
