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

The centerpiece of the fellowship is a four-day summer institute to be held from June 11-14, 2023 (in-person), at the George Washington University campus in Washington D.C. The institute brings experts in the Jewish experience, antisemitism, DEI efforts, and educational inclusion, 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 two online seminar sessions on May 8 and May 22, 2023, orienting fellows to the initiative and its contents, and followed by two online convenings in Fall 2023 discussing updates to the institute themes and progress on program deliverables. 

This is an all expense paid program and all participants will receive an honorarium of $4,000 upon completion of the fellowship.
