The POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews hosts a conference in Warsaw from 23 to 25 November 2026 examining the First World War as a transformative moment for Jewish life in Central and Eastern Europe. Eight panels address anti-Jewish violence and Jewish responses to it, refugees and returnees, relief and communal welfare, military service and the political order after 1918, alongside contributions on women’s activism, statelessness and the survival of Jewish sacred objects. Polly Zavadivker gives the keynote lecture on 23 November. The conference language is English, and it is organised within the Global Education Outreach Program with partners including the Jagiellonian University and the Technische Universität Berlin. Registration is mandatory and the proceedings are broadcast live for registered remote participants.
