On Thursday 23 January 2025, the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) is launching the first of a series of symposiums.
This symposium marks the launch of a ground-breaking ISGAP report, “Education Policy in the United Kingdom Foreign Funding, Soft Power and Antisemitism.” Panellists will critically examine the influence of foreign funding and ideological forces on academic culture in the United Kingdom, exploring whether these factors contribute to the persistence of antisemitic attitudes in higher education.
The events will be taking place at the Woolf Institute, Cambridge. St Edmund’s College has an active affiliation with the Woolf Institute, dedicated to improving relations between religion and society through education.
St Edmund’s College Research Associate, Dr Charles Asher Small is both Executive Director of ISGAP and Director of the ISGAP-Woolf Institute Fellowship Training Programme in Critical Contemporary Antisemitism Studies at the Woolf Institute.

About ISGAP
The Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) is committed to fighting antisemitism on the battlefield of ideas. ISGAP is dedicated to scholarly research into the origins, processes, and manifestations of global antisemitism and of other forms of prejudice, including various forms of racism, as they relate to policy in an age of globalization. On the basis of this examination of antisemitism and policy, ISGAP disseminates analytical and scholarly materials to help combat hatred and promote understanding.
