DESCRIPTION:At various times in history\, Poland was home to the world's l
 argest and most vibrant Jewish community\, until the Nazi German Holocaust
  almost completely destroyed this community during the Second World War. M
 any of the few survivors left Poland in 1968 during a communist-government
 -led “anti-Zionist” campaign. As a result\, in 1989\, when Poland retu
 rned to the family of free nations\, its remaining Jewish communities were
  small\, hidden or non-existent.\n\nSince then – and especially in the l
 ast ten years - things have begun to change. A new generation of Jewish le
 aders from Poland and beyond are reinvigorating Jewish life in Polish citi
 es like Kraków and Warsaw. Many Poles are rediscovering their Jewish root
 s\, while some Jews from elsewhere are making their homes in Polish cities
 .\n\nPoland’s contemporary Jewish communities are vibrant and diverse\, 
 while “Jewishness” itself can mean a great many different things to di
 fferent people.\n\nJoin us for a fascinating discussion of Jewish life in 
 contemporary Poland from a range of different perspectives.\n
