Confronting Holocaust Distortion in the Digital Era at POLIN Museum (Warsaw)

On November 18-20, 2025, the Museum of the History of Polish Jews, POLIN, hosts the international conference “Confronting Holocaust Distortion in the Digital Era" that convenes leading experts and emerging scholars to forge concrete action plans for academic and cultural institutions to effectively confront Holocaust distortion in the digital sphere, addressing the growing divergence between scholarly understanding, public memory, and the manipulation of history.

In an era where misinformation spreads rapidly online and the distinction between truth and falsehood is increasingly blurred, scholars and museum professionals must proactively develop and disseminate compelling, evidence-based narratives about the Shoah.

The conference will be organized by the Holocaust Museum LA in cooperation with the Polish Center for Holocaust Research, the Leibniz Institute of Contemporary History, the Brandeis University, Holocaust Centre North, University of Huddersfield, Yad Vashem and the Jewish Historical Institute.

Application deadline: August 10, 2025 | DETAILS
