Location

Organizer
Thomas Hinz and Petra Quintini

Speaker:
Thomas Hinz (University of Konstanz) and Hanna Veiler (JSUD)

This event is part of an event series „The Hamas-Israel War and Antisemitism. Facts & Discussion (online seminar series in cooperation with Tel Aviv University)“.

In many countries, antisemitism in higher education seems to be specifically pronounced. Thomas Hinz presents results from a large and current survey study among university students in Germany. Beyond empirical facts, we will discuss with Hanna Veiler (Jüdische Studierendenunion Deutschland) individual experience with hostility and antisemitism at universities. Most importantly: what are effective measures against a further spread of antisemitism in higher education?
