Symposia
 





 
   
SYMPOSIA — The Center holds one-day symposia that bring together established and new scholars from around the world to address particular topics. These symposia focus attention on understudied Holocaust subjects, the results of new research, or areas where additional inquiry is needed. They are preceded by three days of consultation among the participants to debate the issues raised by their papers and to plan potential post-symposium cooperation.

AUDIO RECORDINGS OF MANY SYMPOSIA ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE — To hear audio segments of scholars speaking on a variety of subjects, please click on the title of a symposium of interest. Then click on "AGENDA" and next on a speakers name. Often an entire symposium is available online by clicking on "Listen to this Symposium via Real Audio".
