Dear members of the Swedish Research Network,
DIIS and the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs are arranging an international conference
in Denmark on 9-10 October 2023 “A light in the Darkness: Lessons from Denmark during the
Holocaust”. The conference is marking the eightieth anniversary of October 1943 when most
of the jews in Denmark managed to flee to Sweden. The audience is mainly international
members of IHRA. Attached, please find the Programme which is already set, but the Danish
organizational committée have extended the invitation to all who are interested in
participating in the Conference as an audience and they have asked me to spread the word.
Unfortunatley, they won´t be able to cover for travels and lodging, but should you be
interested and have to possibility to cover your own expenses, please send an e-mail to
co-ordinator Emilie Hedegaard Jensen on emhj(a)diis.dk
Warmly welcome!
Best regards
Karin
