ECI - new campaign for local churches to adopt IHRA working definition of antisemitism

 European Coalition for Israel. News:

"With less than one hundred days until Holocaust Remembrance Day 2022, the International Coalition for Israel (ICI)* has launched an educational campaign to invite local churches to adopt the IHRA working definition of antisemitism. The working definition was adopted unanimously by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s 31 member states in 2016. The European Parliament endorsed it in 2018, and in December 2019 the Council of the European Union adopted a declaration calling on Member States that had not yet done so to adopt the IHRA definition. --- What matters is that local churches take seriously the responsibility to consider whether or not they have been negatively influenced by flawed theological or ideological presuppositions which over the years have given birth to antisemitism. Only by discussing and considering these issues can any of us learn to overcome such prejudices. --- The campaign will conclude with a symposium in Berlin and with a Holocaust Memorial on January 27th, 2022." (October 5th, 2021 full text in the link)
