Effective Communication Strategies for Countering Antisemitism

You know what antisemitism is. Now learn how to respond.

Antisemitism can surface at work, in schools, online, and in everyday conversations—but knowing what to say in the moment isn’t always easy. This interactive, research-based workshop from ADL’s Center for Antisemitism Research provides practical tools to respond with clarity and confidence. Learn strategies for addressing antisemitism, countering harmful narratives without escalating conflict, and communicating in ways that reflect your values and strengthen community.
