A WORKSHOP FOR PROFESSIONALS | 75 Minutes

This workshop educates professionals about antisemitism and how fostering allyship can help combat this shape-shifting hatred. Focusing on the Canadian Jewish experience, a detailed perspective on antisemitism is provided, exploring its historical roots as "history's oldest hatred" and its place within the broader context of hate. Participants learn to identify different manifestations of antisemitism and integrate this insight into fostering inclusivity in the workplace.
