ECAJ statement on the Antisemitism Envoy’s comprehensive Plan to Combat Antisemitism.

The ECAJ has strong­ly endorsed the com­pre­hen­sive Plan to Com­bat Anti­semitism which was released today by the Spe­cial Envoy to Com­bat Anti­semitism.

Speak­ing imme­di­ate­ly fol­low­ing the launch of the doc­u­ment, ECAJ Pres­i­dent Daniel Aghion KC said: “This is a very well con­sid­ered plan and ful­ly aligned with the ECAJ’s think­ing and our community‘s expec­ta­tions.”

“It is evi­dent that much research and thought has gone into this doc­u­ment over many months. Its release could not be more time­ly giv­en the recent appalling events in Mel­bourne. The actions which the plan call for are now urgent­ly need­ed.”

“We call upon all sec­tors of soci­ety, includ­ing gov­ern­ment, law enforce­ment, the media, the uni­ver­si­ty sec­tor, edu­ca­tion author­i­ties and online plat­form providers, to co-oper­ate with the Spe­cial Envoy and the Jew­ish com­mu­ni­ty to give this action plan full force and effect.”

“We thank the Prime Min­is­ter and Min­is­ter for Home Affairs for stand­ing with the Jew­ish com­mu­ni­ty at this time and look for­ward to work­ing with the gov­ern­ment to help make anti­semitism a thing of the past.”
