Since the beginning of the year, information on the Forum’s activities has appeared in both local and international media.
In April, the weekend edition of Haaretz featured an article entitled “Let us find the courage to ask: 70 years on, Poland takes a new look at its past.” The article was published at the time of the 70th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in Poland and acknowledged initiatives in building Polish-Jewish relations. In the article, some of the main topics discussed were the educational activities of the Forum, as well as the book “Difficult Questions in Polish-Jewish dialogue.”
French television channel France24 has included material from the meeting organized by the Forum with French youth in their reportage “La Pologne commémore l’insurrection du ghetto de Varsovie,” showing contemporary Polish-Jewish relations. Forum’s activities also were highlighted by la Croix in their article “Les Polonais redécouvrent douloureux passé avec les Juifs.” The article talks about the newly opened Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw, and the results of recent research regarding Polish-Jewish relations.
A Journalist from Jweekly devoted his article, “Polish attitudes about Jews now open for discussion” to the Forum’s educational program – the School of Dialogue. In May Gazeta Wyborcza published an article by Forum’s Vice-President, Michael Bilewicz, which included recent evaluation results gained from the School of Dialogue. The School of Dialogue’s work was also featured on the website of The Warsaw Voice in the article “Promoting Polish-Jewish Dialogue.”
Zuzanna Radzik, a member of Forum’s board, also appeared as an expert on two channels of Polish Public TV. She was invited as an expert to the program “Hala Odlotów” to discuss current Polish-Jewish relations. On “Kawa czy Herbata,” she was chosen to address topics such as xenophobia, intolerance and indifference.
