FELLOWSHIP & SUMMER INSTITUTE ON Antisemitism & Jewish Identity in Educational Settings at George Washington University

For more information go to this link. Summary below.

The Graduate School of Education and Human Development (GSEHD) at the George Washington University is hosting the third annual fellowship program for faculty and campus administrators at college and university-based schools of education, focused on how to recognize, study, and teach antisemitism and foster Jewish representation within university-based schools/colleges/departments of education and other educational settings.

This fellowship grows out of a documented and troubling inattention to addressing antisemitism on the American scene via educational efforts. Fellows will be prepared and guided in designing and implementing interventions that place Jews and antisemitism squarely within broader discussions of identity in curricula, programming, and experiences.

The centerpiece of the fellowship is a four-day summer institute to be held from June 22-25, 2026 (in-person), at the George Washington University campus in Washington D.C. The institute brings experts in the Jewish experience, antisemitism, Jewish peoplehood, curriculum and instruction, and educational administration, together with the Fellows, in an open dialogue on complex and difficult issues. Emerging from this program will be a network of academics committed to change at their respective institutions. 

The summer institute will be preceded by three online seminar sessions (May and June 2026), orienting fellows to the initiative and its contents, and followed by two online convenings in Fall 2026 discussing updates to the institute themes and progress on program deliverables. 

This is an all expense paid program and all participants will receive a $3,000 honorarium upon completion of the fellowship.
