We invite you to submit proposals for papers for the international conference 80 Years after "Aktion Reinhard" (1942-1943): Social Responses and Commemoration, which will be held by the Emmanuel Ringelblum Jewish Historical Institute, the Warsaw Ghetto Museum and the State Museum at Majdanek in Warsaw, September 21-22, 2022.

The collections of the Jewish Historical Institute should be exhibited, so that anyone who visits us may say: there are treasures. We moved the Institute from the era of typewriting to the Internet era. We open up with exhibitions, lectures, film and theater screenings, trying to attract especially the residents of Warsaw. This is the way to the future. Olga Drenda talks to the director of the Jewish Historical Institute, professor Paweł Śpiewak.

’The Great Synagogue, destroyed by Nazi Germany after the fall of the ghetto uprising, will be symbolically rebuilt for the third time. The image of the synagogue emerging from the rubble will appear on the wall of the Blue Tower, on the facade of the building, which took the place after the Great Synagogue after the war’.
