Conference: The Age of Humanitarianism, DI Leipzig
The Leibniz Institute for Jewish History and Culture – Simon Dubnow in Leipzig invites papers for an international conference on The Age of Humanitarianism. Jewish and Other Global Migrations Between Empire and Decolonisation from December 7 to 8, 2026 at the Dubnow Institute in Leipzig, Germany. The conference will examine the interconnections and relationships among various humanitarian support and solidarity networks, including grassroots movements, traditional concepts of hospitality, and professional organisations that facilitate, support, and organise migration. It seeks to create a comparative approach to analyse how different cultures and regions respond to migration and the various support systems in place. The conference will be funded by the Alfred Landecker Foundation, organised by Sebastian Willert (Dubnow Institute), Eliana Hadjisavvas (Birkbeck College), and Sebastian Musch (Osnabrück University).
