With the staggering rise of antisemitism, Anna Shternshis, Director of the Anne Tanenbaum Centre for Jewish Studies and Ron Levi, Distinguished Professor of Global Justice at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, partnered together to form a functioning lab with a goal to examine the persistence of antisemitism in a global context.
“By offering a space for convening and intellectual conversation, we hope to generate new insights on antisemitism as a phenomenon, and new responses for tackling its insidious pervasiveness around the world.”

One of the lab's first initiative will be to convene an international lecture series on antisemitism across various fields of study, opening new opportunities for partnerships among researchers in the University of Toronto, within the Canadian context and around the world. It will help faculty and beyond grow their research and scholarly activities in relation to democratic societies and cultural contexts.
