Join us on Sunday, February 2, 2025, at 12:30 p.m. PST for an impactful, in-person event aimed at combatting antisemitism. The 2025 “Standing Together” symposium will build on the success of last year’s inaugural event and expand in scope and size, with programming designed for allies of the Jewish community, a teen track, and additional breakout workshops to meet the growing needs of our community.
“Standing Together” is designed as a day for community learning and action. Together, we will address rising antisemitism and develop tools to stop its spread. This symposium will bring together stakeholder and community members from across San Diego. Join us as we explore new ways to work as a community, engage in civil discourse, and build bridges for the future.
This year’s symposium will center on the belief that when everyone uses their voices to push antisemitism and those who espouse it to the fringes of society, America becomes a safer place not only for Jews, but for all. The normalization of antisemitism in society is dangerous, and we must work together to tackle the unprecedented threats facing world Jewry and shape a new future for Israel and the Jewish people. A pluralistic society which protects the rights of Jews is healthier for other minority groups and one where civic institutions flourish.
Watch our 2024 Symposium Recap!
