The International Research Workshop Program advances Holocaust research through intensive, collaborative workshops hosted twice yearly at the Museum. These two-week programs convene 10-12 scholars from diverse disciplines worldwide to present their work, conduct research in the Museum's collections, and engage in in-depth discussions that forge new networks and produce innovative scholarship in Holocaust studies.
We invite proposals for workshops from scholars across all relevant disciplines each spring. Calls for Applications for the selected workshops circulate in the fall and winter.
