Historical background to antisemtitism – for youth and young adults

Kos & Kaos, in collaboration with HL-senteret and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), hosted a workshop on antisemitism at Litteraturhuset in Oslo. The event aimed to equip young adults (16–32 years) with the knowledge and tools to recognize and counter antisemitism in their communities.

The program began with a lecture by HL-senteret, exploring the historical roots of antisemitism. Participants then shared a meal, fostering informal discussions. In the afternoon, ADL and Beto Guzmán led an interactive session focusing on practical strategies to combat discrimination and polarization.

The workshop provided a valuable space for learning, dialogue, and empowerment, strengthening participants’ ability to address antisemitism in everyday life.
