The Antisemitism Policy Trust will present a 90-minute training session that will focus on antisemitism: what it is, its roots and modern manifestations. The session aims to leave participants with:
- Increased understanding of who Jewish people are and the community in the UK
- Increased understanding of what antisemitism is, its scale, and reach.
- Knowledge about the different manifestations of antisemitism including but not limited to; conspiratorial, Holocaust denial, Israel and Zionism-linked.
- Understanding of antisemitism online, its impact and pervasiveness
- The ability to identify antisemitism when they see it and explain why something might be antisemitic.
There will be opportunities to put questions to the Trust.
