The 38th conference on Jewish genealogy was organized by The International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies in Warsaw on August 5-10. Forum for Dialogue was featured at a pre-Conference panel organized by Glenn Kurtz “What Do We Really Think?: Stereotypes in the Polish-Jewish Landscape,” chaired a panel entitled “Leaders of Dialogue: Preservation of Jewish Memory in Poland by Non-Jewish Local Activists” featuring Artur Bara from Biłgoraj, Justyna Biernat from Tomaszów Mazowiecki, and Maciej Walasek from Nowy Sącz, and presented on School of Dialogue and Students as Custodians of Jewish Memory in Former Shtetls. The conference participants could also reach us at the Share FAIR and Resource Village, where we answered questions about the work we do, and also listened to incredible family stories.
A big thank you to the organizers, as well as all the Friends of the Forum and Leaders of Dialogue who attended the conference and our panels.
