Komisyon an lanse yon rezo jèn anbasadè Ewopeyen yo pou ankouraje Olokòs

The European Commission hosted on Wednesday (16 November) the first-ever EU Civil Society Forum on combating antisemitism and fostering Jewish life. On this occasion, the two-day gathering will see the launching of a network of young European Ambassadors to promote Holocaust Remembrance. The Forum and the network of Ambassadors are flagship initiatives of the EU Strategy on combating antisemitism and fostering Jewish life initiated by the EU Commission in 2021, ekri Yossi Lempkowicz.

“We are stepping up our work on antisemitism and fostering Jewish life. The Forum will provide a platform for the civil society to help connect initiatives in different member states. By the end of this year, the Commission will make €20 million available to fighting all forms of discrimination, racism and antisemitism and €10 million to support initiatives on Holocaust remembrance,’’ said Commission Vice President Margaritis Schinas.

Through a new network of young ambassadors, the European Commission aims to build bridges between young Europeans and Holocaust survivors, making sure their stories are never forgotten. "Bringing together representatives from across the EU, Israel and other partner countries, the Forum aims to empower civil society to develop new actions and projects on Jewish culture, Holocaust remembrance, and fight against online antisemitism," the Commission said. The network of Young European Ambassadors, launched as part of the European Year of Youth 2022, will help young Europeans how to access and share accurate information about the Holocaust, initiate Holocaust commemoration in their local communities and recognise and rebut Holocaust distortion online.
