Civile Society Forum on Combating Antisemitism and Fostering Jewish Life
Origin
On 16 and 17 November 2022, the European Commission organised a ‘Civil Society Forum on combating antisemitism and fostering Jewish life’ that aims to ‘bring together representatives from the Commission and Jewish communities, civil society and other stakeholders to create links and maximise the effect of joint actions and EU funding. They intend to establish it as a recurring annual event.
Aims
The Commission aims to enhance active cooperation with and among civil society and provide more information on accessing financial support for initiatives in all areas covered by the EU Antisemitism Strategy.
Actions
The Civil Society Forum will bring together representatives of European and International Jewish and non-Jewish organisations, representatives of EU Member State authorities, EU Institutions officials, experts in tech, IT, research, advocacy, security etc. to build bridges among these various fields of civil society, promote dialogue, create synergies, grant access to information and inspire towards cooperation on new joint initiatives advancing towards a European society free of antisemitism where Jewish life prospers.
