#AmCon2025!

On Monday 30th June, hundreds of Ambassadors and students from across the UK joined us in London for AmCon 2025 – the highlight of our year, and an important day of learning, reflection and inspiration.

The theme for AmCon 2025, The Time is Now, reflects the importance of this year marking 80 years since the liberation of the camps. Ambassadors heard from distinguished keynote speakers including award-winning historian and filmmaker Laurence Rees, Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis, Holocaust survivors Eva Clarke BEM and Ivor Perl BEM, author Wendy Holden and cartoonist and filmmaker Zoom Rockman. They reiterated the importance of Ambassadors’ commitment to sharing what they have learned and standing against antisemitism today.

Ambassadors and students also took part in a number of bespoke educational workshops led by experts in the field, exploring topics as diverse as local collaboration in Hungary during the Holocaust, Holocaust sites beyond Auschwitz, the ethics of conducting research using the personal letters of Jewish German refugees, and the challenge of countering contemporary trends in antisemitism. They also had the opportunity to participate in the Trust’s new digital education programme, Testimony 360: People and Places of the Holocaust.

We would love for you to join us next year for AmCon 2026!
