Summary/Abstract: Our research has been conducted between 2016 and 2019 in a high school of Budapest. In our innovative research, we examined the impacts of the activity-series of Haver Foundation regarding the attitude changes and the students’ knowledge about Jews. The methodological base of this research was controlled experiment which includes pre-testing and post-testing of the students’ attitudes and knowledge; and the inclusion of a controlled group, who did not take part during the activities. We are aware of the fact that a few months and one activity is not enough to reach major changes in either of the dimensions (attitude and knowledge), therefore, we exposed the students with well-targeted activities and we repeated the examinations of the students’ attitude towards minorities in general, and Jews in particular. In this paper, we are going to highlight the main quantitative and qualitative findings of the first two waves of our experimental study.
