The American Jewish Committee and the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities signed an association agreement in Geneva.
“We appreciate the national and international reach of the organization,” Federation President Alfred Donath said Thursday. “We admire the great work of its Geneva-based affiliate, UN Watch. AJC is an effective bridge-building agency whose intra-Jewish and interreligious work has particular meaning and applicability for us.”
AJCommittee in Europe is involved in strengthening relations between Jews and other religious groups, combating anti-Semitism and fostering an understanding of Israel’s security needs. AJCommittee leaders frequently meet with top-level European political leaders concerning Jewish issues.
