Taskforce: Education on Antisemitism
The Taskforce Education on Antisemitism is a network of experts working in schools and extracurricular education coordinated by the American Jewish Committee (AJC). It was founded in 2002 due to the insight that previous educational approaches regarding topics like racism, and methods – in the tradition of general Human Rights education – did not do justice to the specific challenges in the field of antisemitism. The taskforce provides a platform to discuss present forms of antisemitism and the development of possible educational actions against it. It reflects the practical experience as well as the conceptual approaches of the individual network members. The taskforce combines debates about research and research results from a practical perspective and in addition regularly invites external experts for continuative discussions.
