Ongoing Survey on Anti-Semitism in Schools
Dear teachers,
The Terezin Initiative Institute is conducting a survey to chart changes in prejudice, attitudes and behavior among students during the school year. We are looking at a larger range of issues, but we are focusing in particular on anti-Semitism, and on attitudes that have taken shape in the aftermath of 7 October 2023 and the subsequent Israeli-Palestinian conflict. At the same time, we ask about your experiences, how you react to these views and activities of your students, or if you consider any activities risky.
The research is also being conducted in Germany, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary.
It will take you less than 10 minutes to complete the tick-box section; if you are willing to share your experiences with us, please allow more time to complete the questionnaire.
Please complete the Research on Anti-Semitism in Schools questionnaire as soon as possible, while the school year is still fresh in your mind, but no later than the beginning of the next school year.
We would be delighted if you would involve your colleagues and students in the survey and share the questionnaire with them.
Project funded by the European Practitioners Network Against Antisemitism (EPNA).

Thanks to the generous support of various donors, we have been able to add new books to our library collection. Among them is a wide range of specialist literature in German, English and Czech that complements our existing collection.
We would like to present a few highlights to our readers here. The complete list of new additions can be found in the PDF document.
On the occasion of the meeting of the International Auschwitz Museum Council, its members paid tribute to the Jewish and Roma victims of the Treblinka labor camp at the site of their mass graves. Pictured are T. Kraus, Colette Avital and Roman Kwiatkowski.
This Sunday 11th May 2025 we attended a commemorative act in Lety u Písku to honor the Roma and Sinti victims from Bohemia and Moravia. 1300 people passed through the camp. Of those 335, mainly children, have died due to the inhumane conditions. After the mass transport in 1943 to the extermination camp in Auschwitz - Birkenau, the buildings of the Lety camp were torn down and burnt.
Thanks to Spielberg's film Schindler's List, the whole world knows the story of the rescue of 1,200 Jewish prisoners at the end of the Second World War. The whole world knows who Oskar Schindler was and why he became a symbol of good in a time of evil. But that same world has no idea where this heartbreaking story actually took place. That could change now.
Yesterday, together with the participants of the seminar and excursion Bergen-Belsen on the Threshold of Freedom, we attended a reception at the British Embassy in Prague on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp by the British Army on 15 April 1945.
Anne Frank and thousands of others. We visited the place where the fate of one of the world's most famous stories came to an end, as well as that of countless of others. The Bergen-Belsen camp was burned down after the war, but one can still hear echoes of the past. How can we learn about the horrors that have gone to ashes?
Yesterday, we welcomed Director Denise Quistorp and Sebastian Halbauer from the Austrian Cultural Forum in Prague to our premises at Jáchymova to exchange views on our respective activities and projects. This gave us the opportunity to identify common priorities in our work and to further strengthen Austro-Czech exchange through future cooperation.
