CEJI welcomes the handbook for the practical use of the IHRA antisemitism definition
12/01/2021
Published jointly by the European Commission and the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, the handbook offers practical tips for applying the IHRA working definition to real-life antisemitic cases. Since the definition has been an organic part of the CEJI trainings, we are especially pleased to see such a useful complement made widely accessible.
The purpose of this guide is to:
-present the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism, along with guiding examples, and to relate these to the contexts of real-world antisemitic incidents and crimes;
– illustrate good practices in the application of the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism and
– offer a checklist for using the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism across different policy areas.
CEJI welcomes the possibilities brought along by this handbook, which helps to create a better understanding and a clearer language around antisemitism, and ultimately helps to combat it more effectively.
