The Canadian Society for Jewish Studies (CSJS) was founded in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 2004 with the goal to promote and facilitate the development of Jewish Studies in Canada. The CSJS meets annually and is a venue for the presentation of Jewish studies education, research and information primarily for faculty members, graduate students, and independent scholars living in Canada (even though residence in Canada is not required for membership).
The 2026 conference is to take place May 26-28, in person at Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada. Our host is Professor Deidre Butler, Director of the Max and Tessie Zelikovitz Centre for Jewish Studies.
